Meta is facing a landmark legal battle with 29 states accusing the company of deliberately designing its platforms to keep children hooked while misleading the public about their safety. George Washington University law professor Mary Anne Franks explains the state and federal claims, why the case has drawn comparisons to tobacco litigation, and why the biggest consequence may not be the potential financial penalty, but what internal documents reveal about what Meta knew and when. She joins Ed Ludlow on “Bloomberg Tech.”

    Does McDonald’s design Happy Meals to make kids less addicted and less likely to want junk food every day?

      No, but they didn’t make that addictive element the main goal when designing hamburgers you moron

    Shutdown Meta/Facebook company. This company needs to collapse and go bankrupt so society can go back to living in a normal sane life again and not living in a fake reality anymore. Meta/Facebook company has cooked people’s brains for 22 years now, and it needs to end. We don’t want anymore of Meta’s services anymore in any parts of the world.

    El diseño de los algoritmos de las redes sociales y la IA, esta demostrado que es predictivo y adictivo. El reto para estas compañías como META es, diseñar algoritmos de enfoque hermenéutico y que integren la operación del tiempo de Kairós(cualitativo y de significado), ya que este es predominantemente cronológico. Una analogía a manera de metáfora, se encuentra implícita en este cuento literario que se titula: “Una Navidad muy Emocional para la Inteligencia Artificial: La Historia de cómo un Robot Aprendió a Sentir”. Este es un Objeto de Aprendizaje (OA) digital publicado en redes sociales. Espero y que sea de interés. Saludos desde México.
