Threads’ new ‘Dear Algo’ AI feature lets you personalize your feed

SMRTR summary

Threads launched "Dear Algo," an AI feature allowing users to temporarily customize their feeds by posting public requests like "Dear Algo, show me more posts about podcasts," with adjustments lasting three days. Users can repost others' requests to apply them to their own feeds, creating a community experience. This gives Threads a competitive advantage over X and Bluesky by offering advanced personalization beyond simple "Not Interested" buttons, making the platform feel more responsive to users' changing interests.
