YouTube Recommendation Algo

1 points by solarized 2 hours ago

YouTube’s recommendation system tends to reinforce viewing patterns.

* If someone watches constructive content, it continues suggesting similar topics.

* The same happens with less constructive material.

Which can gradually push users toward more polarized content.

Would it be beneficial if YT and friends occasionally introduced content from broadly respected science communicators or educators (NDT, Feynman, Asimov, Or even Carlin), to promote more balanced perspectives?

Curious what others think.
