much like a slot machine, it is a device designed to totally monopolize your attention for long stretches of time with randomized releases of dopamine rewards based on some minimal mechanical input from the user (the buttons in slots, scrolling in tiktok's case) for the purpose of monetizing you. it is weaponized psychology.
