November 6, 2025·17 min·1 clip

What if we replaced social media's division-seeking algorithms with ones that reward unlikely consensus?

The hosts explore a thought experiment where social media is comprehensively reformed through algorithmic changes, dopamine emission standards, legal actions, and duty of care laws, imagining a world with reduced polarization and enhanced digital well-being. They highlight real-world efforts like lawsuits and legislation that could make this alternative future possible.
