The reason is simple. Everything Facebook does and chooses not to do flows from a single motivation: Zuckerberg’s relentless desire for growth. — PolitiTweet.org

More important, she realized, if it tried to, it would be set up for failure. — PolitiTweet.org

By the time thousands of rioters stormed the US Capitol in January, it was clear from Hao’s conversations that the Responsible AI team had failed to make headway against misinformation and hate speech because it had never made those problems its main focus. — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
But Quiñonero and that communications director, his PR handler you could say, only wanted to discuss the Responsible AI team’s plan to tackle one specific kind of problem: AI bias, in which algorithms discriminate against particular user groups. — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
She began video-calling Quiñonero regularly. She also spoke to Facebook executives, current and former employees, industry peers, and external experts. She wanted to know: What was Quiñonero’s team doing to rein in the hate and lies on its platform? — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
Fixing this problem, to Hao, seemed like core Responsible AI territory. — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
The algorithms that underpin Facebook’s business weren’t created to filter out what was false or inflammatory; they were designed to make people share and engage with as much content as possible by showing them things they were most likely to be outraged or titillated by. — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
All these dangerous falsehoods were metastasizing thanks to the AI capabilities Quiñonero had helped build. — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
In the years since Quiñonero formed his team following the Cambridge Analytica scandal, concerns about the spread of lies and hate speech on Facebook had only grown. https://t.co/S9MyVH0cCv — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
After a communications director at Facebook set @_KarenHao up with interviews with several of its AI leaders, she decided to focus on Quiñonero. He seemed a natural choice of subject for her, too. — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
In the spring of 2020, it was apparently @_KarenHao’s turn. — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
Facebook has consistently pointed to the efforts by Quiñonero and others as it seeks to repair its reputation. It regularly trots out various leaders to speak to the media about the ongoing reforms. https://t.co/rljblyhZr4 https://t.co/IRZDBWfKzV — PolitiTweet.org

In his six years at Facebook, he’d created some of the first algorithms for targeting users with content precisely tailored to their interests, and then he’d diffused those algorithms across the company. Now his mandate would be to make them less harmful. https://t.co/H1XC30dzEt — PolitiTweet.org

Quiñonero was a natural pick for the job. He, as much as anybody, was the one responsible for Facebook’s position as an artificial-intelligence powerhouse. https://t.co/G5V5dSmXBZ — PolitiTweet.org

The group named itself the Society and AI Lab (SAIL); last year it combined with another team at Facebook working on issues of data privacy to form Responsible AI. — PolitiTweet.org
MIT Technology Review @techreview
After the Cambridge Analytica scandal in 2018, Joaquin Quiñonero Candela, a director of artificial intelligence at Facebook, was asked to start a team with a directive that was a little vague: to examine the societal impact of the company’s algorithms. https://t.co/bf62wgLrMO — PolitiTweet.org

Three years ago, Facebook had the chance to rein in the lies and hate on its platform. This is the inside story of how it failed—and how it’s all of us who pay the price. https://t.co/4pEnucZGsP — PolitiTweet.org

A careful Chinese hacking campaign turned into something much bigger and much more chaotic around February 26. It was “highly reckless, dangerous, and needs to be responded to,” says one cybersecurity expert. https://t.co/YAcQejjFHV — PolitiTweet.org
