Forgive me if I don't take advice about the causes of mental health problems from someone with clear malignant narcissism.

@DanMorgan @stefan I just re-read the quote. He said no *causal* link. Not casual. So your comment, though correct, is off. Moral of the story, Zuck is Wrong and Dangerous

@chris My mistake. Totally misread the quote. He’s of course wrong.

@DanMorgan all good. I thought it said casual at first too!

@stefan wtf, I didn't know he was part of The Foundation.
-
@jbz He might not be directly involved very much, if at all, but having his company listed under "partners" on https://socialwebfoundation.org definitely does not inspire confidence.

CEO of Meta, which recently joined the newly founded #SocialWebFoundation, thinks that "individual creators or publishers tend to overestimate the value of their specific content".
Mark Zuckerberg: creators and publishers ‘overestimate the value’ of their work for training AI
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg says the company could strike partnerships for “valuable” content to train AI tools, but that it could walk away from paying others.

Meta, which recently joined the newly founded #SocialWebFoundation, "cut 21,000 jobs, including in trust and safety and customer service, over multiple rounds of layoffs", leading state and local officials "puzzled by what to expect from Facebook" around voting misinformation.
Meta's misinformation problem has local election officials struggling to get out the truth
Derek Bowens has never had such an important job.

@stefan isn’t the #SocialWebFoundation looking to snuggle up real close to the #fediverse?

@wendinoakland @stefan hey, Wendy. Actually, we are a big part of the Fediverse. You know me, of course, but you also know a lot of the open source projects, non-profits, and companies listed as supporters on https://socialwebfoundation.org/. Not everyone on the Fediverse is there, but I think everyone on the Fediverse can benefit from what we do.

@evan the original reference to Meta appears to have been deleted.

@evan @stefan Yes, I do, and I’m honestly concerned. I fear that meta, with its extremely lenient moderation, tolerant of thinly veiled racism, sexism, otherism of the most profound kind, and tuned to magnifying algorithms, will potentially harm some of the people most precious to me in this noncommercial fediverse. Please try to understand my reservations…
