LOS ANGELES: Researchers at Stanford University say they have developed a tool that can noticeably reduce partisan hostility in X feeds by reordering posts rather than blocking them.
The study, published in the journal Science, suggests it may one day be possible to let users control their own social media algorithms, not only on X, formerly Twitter, but on other platforms.
