Filter Bubble
A filter bubble describes the phenomenon in which users, influenced by algorithmic recommendation or information-filtering mechanisms, are exposed predominantly to content aligned with their existing preferences or viewpoints, resulting in cognitive closure. In the AI era, the concept extends to new forms such as AI summarization tools replacing users' own judgment in evaluating information importance.
