Facebook and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, knocking critics and media, claiming that people on the net have enough autonomy to decide for themselves what to believe.
Meta announced in January that it would end its controversial facts checking the facts and raising the limit to speech “Return a free expression” On Facebook, Instagram and his platforms, admitting that his current models of content models “went too far”.
The decision was fulfilled by a quick return of groups claiming that social media needed a strong system of verification of facts and models of content to prevent disinformation or extreme ideology to become viral. Zuckerberg faced critics claiming that use on social media is inherently harmful, criticizing the “sensationalist” media reports on the impact of social media during its appearance on it Theo von Podcast “last weekend.”
“There is a version of history that says some people are very powerful and have a lot of autonomy and ability to move in a direction they think is right,” Zuckerberg said. “And there are like all these other narratives in which people try to somehow reduce the autonomy and autonomy of people.”
Meta Director Mark Zuckerberg spoke with comedian Theo von on his “Last weekend” undercar.
Facebook founder He suggested that if anyone was guilty of a misunderstanding, it was the medium itself.
“I am like I was always a person who really believes that people understand – people are smarter than people think, and I think they are generally able to make good decisions for their lives, and when they do things that like media or anything that thinks they have no sense; in general because the media does not understand their lives, not because people are stupid,” he said.
Zuckerberg added: “If people say something that looks wrong, these are usually not disinformation, you usually do not understand what is happening in the life of that person, and I just think that there is a certain kind of paternalism in some similar narratives and some media narratives”
The Meta Executive Director noted that there has been a change in the informative landscape, however, as “maybe some of these cultural or media elite people like harder to predict what will happen in the world. There may be a little more humility like” Maybe we don’t understand it all. “

Zuckerberg claimed that the best predictive metric is to evaluate the system whether people find it useful.
“If you build something useful to them, they will use it,” he said, suggesting that he would leave him if others, better options, become available.
The danger, Zuckerberg said, is when the choice of people have been brought to them.
“Whenever we take the attitude,” Oh, we need to know better than them, because we are these technology, “then you lose,” he said. “If you have that attitude long enough, then simply, like, you become company, and lose, and you lose, and lose, and then you are irrelevant.
Zuckerberg reiterated his belief that people are smart enough to make their own decisions and “ultimately run the direction that society goes into.”
