Twitter's new initiative to stop fake news Twitter is taking steps to combat online violence, hate speech and false information. In this regard, Twitter has begun to work out other ways of spreading information through social media. Jack Dorsey, the company's chief executive, is funding the study. According to a news agency AFP, he assigned the research to a five-member team of independent architects, engineers and designers named Blusky last Tuesday. That research team will create a standard of open and decentralization of social media. Twitter's chief executive said in a tweet that Twitter aims to test the new standards. If you want platforms like Facebook and Twitter you can follow them. "We are facing a whole new set of challenges," said Dorsey. These include things like removing fake information or identifying violent content. There is a lot of controversy and criticism that arises because the current algorithms direct users to content. According to Twitter's chief executive, the value of social media has now gone beyond content retention, removal and directed algorithms. Now, no one can make or choose the alternative. Creating an open standard can further the standard of communication. The Twitter-funded research team will strive to create an open community around the new standard. It will try to engage different institutions, researchers, organizations and community leaders. It will not happen overnight, of course. Sufficient time will be required to create appropriate standards. Answered by Birds of the sky (2 Golds) Friday, 13 Dec 2019, 08:12 AM |
