How Do Algorithms Affect What We See Online?

Imagine you're playing a game where the computer picks what you see based on what you've liked before. That's kind of how algorithms work online, they help choose the videos, posts, and ads we see every day.

How it works: When you click on something interesting or like a post, the algorithm takes note and tries to show more of the same. It’s like a robot friend that knows what you like and keeps giving you more of it.
