The Hype Machine — How Social Media Algorithms Shape Public Perception
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.
This episode explores The Hype Machine by Sinan Aral as a systems-level analysis of how social media platforms shape modern information ecosystems.
Rather than focusing on individual posts or controversies, the episode examines the structural design of social media networks—the algorithms, engagement incentives, and feedback loops that amplify certain information across billions of users.
The analysis explains how these systems influence elections, public health responses, and global communication networks.
