摘要

摘要本定性研究旨在阐明算法过程对新闻受众的深刻影响。CAPI在全国范围内有101名参与者，从几个相互关联的角度考察了算法新闻消费，包括个性化、新闻欣赏、回音室、算法素养和新闻素养。研究发现，人工智能新闻应用程序的用户通常信任甚至更喜欢算法而非人类的判断，但他们担心错过重要信息和具有挑战性的观点，以及他们的隐私。许多参与者虽然对接受基于算法的新闻推荐感到矛盾，但通常对个性化新闻源表现出舒适感、欣赏感和满足感，称使用新闻应用程序是一种愉快和令人满意的体验。虽然参与者普遍报告说，在使用新闻应用程序后，他们在搜索信息方面不太活跃，但具有讽刺意味的是，许多参与者认为，既然他们有了新闻应用程序，他们就更了解情况，更了解情况。

Personalization, Echo Chambers, News Literacy, and Algorithmic Literacy: A Qualitative Study of AI-Powered News App Users

ABSTRACT This qualitative study aims to illuminate the profound impacts of algorithmic processes on news audiences. The CAPI with 101 participants nationwide examines algorithmic news consumption from several interrelated perspectives, including personalization, news appreciation, echo chambers, algorithmic literacy, and news literacy. The study finds that users of AI-powered news apps often trust and even prefer algorithmic to human judgement but are concerned about missing out on important information and challenging viewpoints, as well as about their privacy. Many participants, while ambivalent about living with algorithm-based news recommendations, commonly exhibit a sense of comfort, appreciation, and gratification with personalized news feeds, calling the use of news apps a pleasant and satisfactory experience. While participants in general report being less active in searching information after using news apps, many participants believe that they are, ironically, more informed and knowledgeable now that they have the news apps.
