Twitter tests the algorithm for promoting the most trendy news in the top of the tape

For the time being, the function is mostly controlled by people, but in the future the Twitter team plans to completely switch to machine learning algorithms.

How it works

It's pretty simple, as soon as any big event waxes, the tweets of other users and news channels on this topic will move up your news feed. Thus, the hottest information guides will not pass you by and will always be heard. The action innovation is very similar to the Twitter Happening Now feature, which combines tweets about current events together and is commonly used to highlight major sporting events.
