Google is rolling out a new feature called ‘For You’ to its News app, aiming to provide a more personalized news experience for users. The feature utilizes machine learning to analyze users’ reading history, saved articles, and other factors to curate a tailored feed of news stories..
The ‘For You’ tab will be prominently displayed in the News app, offering a curated selection of articles that Google believes will be of interest to the user. The feature will also include a ‘Your interests’ section, where users can select specific topics or sources they want to see more of in their feed..
Google claims that the ‘For You’ feature will improve the relevance and diversity of news stories displayed in the News app. By using machine learning to analyze user data, the feature can identify patterns and preferences that may not be apparent to users themselves. This allows Google to surface news stories that are both relevant to the user’s interests and provide a broader perspective on current events..
