Is the algorithm finally transparent? This social platform's open-source code—can the crypto community breathe a sigh of relief?

Question

【Blockchain Rhythm】 Recently, there has been a major development worth paying attention to. A leading social media platform’s engineering team announced that they have open-sourced a new algorithm, which uses the same Transformer architecture as a certain AI model.

The platform’s founder commented quite interestingly — acknowledging that the algorithm is still quite rough and needs significant optimization. But the key point is, we are making the improvement process transparent in real-time for everyone to see, something other social media companies simply cannot do.

In fact, this is fulfilling a promise. As early as January 11, it was announced that the new algorithm would be open-sourced within 7 days, including all recommendation logic code — whether for natural content or advertisements. Even more impressively, this process is repeated every four weeks, accompanied by detailed developer documentation.

Why do this? The background is quite clear: previously, the platform’s algorithm blocked posts related to cryptocurrencies, which caused quite a bit of criticism within the crypto community. Now, by open-sourcing the algorithm, they are responding to these concerns — the higher the transparency, the smaller the manipulation space. For communities used to “black box recommendations,” this is indeed a new attempt.

Wow, open-source algorithms? Now I can finally see through their little tricks. It's not just talk that can be trusted.

Building new algorithms with Transformer architecture sounds pretty advanced, but the key is whether it’s truly transparent or just another PR stunt.

Updating code around here? That's interesting. They're really playing with the entire Web3 community, which is much better than behind-the-scenes manipulations.

The previous move to block crypto content really annoyed us. This time, open-sourcing shows some attitude.

Rough as it is, at least they've laid out the logic clearly, which is more honest than those black-box algorithms.

Will open-sourcing the code really make a difference? It all depends on execution. Don’t end up with just PPT promises again.

Oh no, another set of "transparency" tricks? Is it just about open-sourcing code to whitewash algorithms and kill off content in the crypto space?

Saying that roughness still needs optimization sounds sincere, but why not be transparent from the start?

Updating the development documentation once every four weeks—are they genuinely trying to improve or just putting on a show with words?

Even with open-source code, we still have to trust that they are actually running on the code, right? That logic doesn't quite hold up.

They weren't so "transparent" when blocking encrypted content. Now that they've been criticized, they suddenly remember to open-source—it's a bit too late.

Actually, it's just being scared of getting hammered, using open-source algorithms to whitewash. The crypto community should still be suspicious.

Rough algorithms still dare to show off, how confident they must be haha.

Open-source code ≠ the truth of openness. Bro, we've been tired of this routine for a long time.

Talking about transparency sounds nice, but it really depends on whether there's genuine improvement afterward.

If someone discovers a new bug within a month, open-source just seems like putting on a show.

Bro, this move is pretty clever. Just open-sourcing the code to calm public opinion? I doubt it.

Honestly, whether you can see the code logic depends on if someone has genuinely audited it.

Open source is one thing, but the key is whether the logic that’s been hidden has really been changed.

They update every four weeks, just a marketing stunt to show how "transparent" they are.

You can look at the code, but what about the black box parts? That’s a bit funny.

Instead of open sourcing, it’s better to just directly block targeted access—this is just a superficial fix, not a real solution.

Watch the show, it’s probably another big act of "We are very open."

The code is out in the open, but where’s the money?

Wow, finally someone dares to showcase their algorithm, although it's rough, but at least it's better than a black box.

Open source is open source, but this wave was probably driven by criticism... reminds me of those disappeared crypto posts back then.

Update every four weeks? Are we running a continuous drama here? Let's wait and see how it unfolds.

Algorithm transparency ≠ fair content recommendation. It still depends on how they implement it later.

Can this Transformer architecture solve the blocking issue? I'm a bit skeptical.

Open source code is one thing, but the key is what they want to promote or will promote. What do you think?

It's all talk, but let's first see if the exposure rate of crypto-related content has actually increased.

Hmm... Open-source algorithms sound good, but can they really change anything? Or is it just the same old story with a new coat of paint?

Wait, is this X? Bragging about rough algorithms? I don't believe you.

Open source is open source, but the key is whether they'll secretly revert the changes this time.

Update once every four weeks? Feels like atonement, still angry about the previous ban on crypto.

Open-sourcing code ≠ transparent review, but it's still better than hiding everything.

Hey, has this guy finally admitted defeat? No matter how much the algorithm is optimized, it can't change the platform's stance.

Is the algorithm finally transparent? This social platform's open-source code—can the crypto community breathe a sigh of relief?
