How do Social Media Algorithms Work?

• An AI algorithm made using the latest software
  and computer systems is basically a mathematical
  set of rules that defines how a collection of
  data behaves. Many social media algorithms work
  by sorting all the content in a users feed. They

  relevant material, but sometimes these algorithms
  can get it wrong, either accidentally or on
  purpose.
