A systematic review of echo chamber research
This systematic review synthesizes research on echo chambers and filter bubbles to explore the reasons behind dissent regarding their existence, antecedents, and effects. It provides a taxonomy of conceptualizations and operationalizations, analyzing how measurement approaches and contextual factors influence outcomes. The review of 129 studies identifies variations in measurement approaches, as well as regional, political, cultural, and platform…
Decoding Algorithms
Algorithmic recommenders are omnipresent in our daily lives. While a multitude of studies focus on how people use algorithmic recommenders, far too little attention has been devoted to how they perceive and understand these complex systems. In this study we focus on Algorithmic News Recommenders (ANR). Drawing on 26 semi-structured interviews, we investigated how laypeople decode Google News and Facebook News. In our method we employ the scroll-b…
Bias in data‐driven artificial intelligence systems—An introductory survey
Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐based systems are widely employed nowadays to make decisions that have far‐reaching impact on individuals and society. Their decisions might affect everyone, everywhere, and anytime, entailing concerns about potential human rights issues. Therefore, it is necessary to move beyond traditional AI algorithms optimized for predictive performance and embed ethical and legal principles in their design, training, and deploym…
