Facebook's AI boss: Facebook could fix its filter bubble if it wanted to http://www.recode.net/2016/12/1/13800270/facebook-filter-bubble-fix-technology-yann-lecun
Now the head of Facebook's artificial intelligence research division, Yann LeCun, says this is a problem Facebook could solve with artificial intelligence. "We believe this is more of a product question than a technology question," LeCun told a group of reporters last month when asked if artificial intelligence could solve this filter-bubble phenomenon. "We probably have the technology, it's just how do you make it work from the product side, not from the technology side." A Facebook spokesperson clarified after the interview that the company doesn't actually have this type of technology just sitting on the shelf. But LeCun seems confident it could be built. So why doesn't Facebook build it? - - - --Lauren-- REPORT Fake News Here! - https://vortex.com/report-fakes CRUSHING the Internet Liars - https://vortex.com/crush-net-liars STOP President Trump - https://vortex.com/stop-president-trump - - - Lauren Weinstein (lau...@vortex.com): https://www.vortex.com/lauren Lauren's Blog: https://lauren.vortex.com Founder: Network Neutrality Squad: https://www.nnsquad.org PRIVACY Forum: https://www.vortex.com/privacy-info Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: https://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Google+: https://google.com/+LaurenWeinstein Twitter: https://twitter.com/laurenweinstein Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 I have consulted to Google, but I am not currently doing so -- my opinions expressed here are mine alone. - - - The correct term is "Internet" NOT "internet" -- please don't fall into the trap of using the latter.
