Embedding Societal Values into Social Media Algorithms

Abstract

In this commentary, we refer to "AI" and "algorithm" interchangeably to refer to machine learning procedures that learn to predict from large-scale data.We are primarily concerned with social media algorithms focused on ranking and recommendation, especially feed algorithms, but we note that social media AIs play many other roles as well, including content moderation, (de)monetization, misinformation tagging, political content tagging, and toxicity judgments.
