I agree completely, but these companies need to make their policies transparent so the users will have an informed choice about their platform.
Yet for some reason, TikTok wants to hide this story. Why do you think that is?
- heartbeats 7y agoBecause it's not a good look. They want to use a clean app, but they don't want to see the cleaning being done. This is what people want. I mean, if they wanted to see ugly people or whatever, then TikTok would show them it. It's not any different than Tinder filtering out the duds.
- chillwaves 7y agoThen why not just leave it to an algorithm? Why the need for editorial intervention? The person I was responding to was basically saying "let the users decide" but that can't happen if TikTok is lying to the users.
- fxtentacle 7y agoThese days, a lot of what tech companies call "artificial intelligence" is actually outsourced moderators used to train a linear regression. So there isn't much difference between algorithmic and manual sorting yet, because the AI needed for algorithmic curation is not intelligent enough yet.
