This screenshot shows my personalised Google News homepage, which displays articles primarily about technology and business — topics I frequently read. Despite being a 'news' platform, the content I see is curated by an algorithm based on my previous behaviour, not by editorial judgment.

This object demonstrates that bias in knowledge production is not only human but also algorithmic. The feed creates a filter bubble: I receive knowledge that confirms my existing interests while alternative perspectives remain hidden. The algorithm does not intend to bias me, yet the structural effect is a narrowing of my epistemic horizon.

However, one might argue that all curation involves selection and therefore bias. A newspaper editor also chooses which stories to print. The difference is transparency: I can identify a newspaper's editorial stance, but Google's algorithm is opaque. This raises the question of whether bias is more dangerous when it is invisible. The object suggests that bias is indeed inevitable, but its impact depends on whether the knower is aware of it.
