@krismicinski@types.pl That's an interesting question. After all, you could imagine doing the same to a human, except they'd run out of bandwidth to process that much information. Whereas if you can fit it in a context window, the AI will read all of it without getting exhausted. So maybe the key is to generate just enough info that will fit in the context?
Periodic reminder: When people actually _study_ social media, they come to realize that even the most so called "echo chamber" actually tends to be MORE diverse than the communities they'd otherwise inhabit.
The tribal, self-reinforcing social boundaries that reject new information are actually an artifact of _contextless exposure to people with different points of view_. And accelerated by hostility.
In short: echo chambers don't exist. Insularity is a response to disrupted community norm formation by slamming too many people together without context for each other. It's not the social media algorithms directly doing it. It's the social response to those algorithms.
