Zuckerberg refuses to slow down AI development, Meta faces criticism
Videos
Mark Zuckerberg has rejected calls to slow down the development of artificial intelligence. The head of Meta claims that competition and the risk of lawsuits create sufficient pressure for technology companies to act responsibly. Le Figaro ↗
Meta is also facing criticism regarding the functioning of its platforms. A former company engineer stated that he sent Zuckerberg data on the harm Instagram caused to minors, but received no response. His testimony has become part of the legal pressure on the company over its possible support of addictive behavior in children. El Mundo ↗
A Meta subcontractor in Barcelona is citing organizational reasons for laying off approximately 2,000 people. The company denies that the decision is related to employee lawsuits. The content moderation center ceased operations in 2025. El Pais ↗
WhatsApp, which belongs to Meta, is testing a warning about possible scams in messages from unknown contacts. The feature uses artificial intelligence and, according to available data, is meant to warn users without Meta checking the content of private conversations. zpravy.aktualne.cz ↗
Meta's new artificial intelligence system has also affected the functioning of social networks. The British group Muse had to give up its long-held account names, as they were taken over by the company's new AI agent. Meta is also facing objections over the scale of fraudulent advertisements on Facebook and Instagram. Further developments will depend on whether the company can combine the rapid expansion of AI with more effective protection of users. idnes.cz ↗
