+# The Algorithm
+
+June 4, 2024
+
+I decided to listen to music this evening. I had a particular song in mind while turning it on, though I ended up choosing to listen to some other album.
+
+When the app reached the end of the album, it kept going by selecting "similar" songs. And the one I wanted to listen to was in there, chosen by the algorithm.
+
+Did the algorithm successfully learn to suggest songs I like? Or did it suggest this song several times already during previous evenings, such that I wanted to listen to it?
