The New Yorker Radio HourIt’s Not Just You: The Internet Is Actually Getting Worse“Sometimes a term is so apt, its meaning so clear and so relevant to our circumstances, that it becomes more than just a useful buzzword and grows to define an entire moment,” the columnist Kyle Chayka writes, in a review of Cory Doctorow’s book “Enshittification.” Doctorow, a prolific tech writer, is a co-founder of the tech blog Boing Boing, and an activist for online civil liberties with the Electronic Frontier Foundation—so he knows whereof he speaks. He argues that the phenomenon of tech platforms seemingly getting worse for users is not a matter of perception but a business str...

The Algorithmic LifeThe Algorithmic Age How Digital Systems Reshape Human Experience Attention Relationships and Culture in 2025Listeners, today’s world is a vivid demonstration of what it means to live the algorithmic life. Daily existence is shaped by invisible systems that analyze, predict, and surface—shaping the content you see, the products you buy, and even the connections you form. Kyle Chayka, writing for the New Yorker and author of Filterworld, captures the essence of a culture led by algorithms: our tastes, interests, even moods are curated by recommendation engines, turning creators and consumers into performers vying for visibility. The age of chronological feeds is behind us, replaced by feeds designed not for diversity but for maxi...

There's a lot of curation going on but it's more in the sense of selecting between stuff. Curation, to me, is a much more deep-seated act that has more to do with the caretaking of culture, building context, and creating histories that might be overlooked.” — Kyle Chayka, Author, “Filterworld: How Algorithms Flattened Culture”If you’ve heard of things like Instagram face or the Brooklyn coffee shop effect, you...
