Facebook-Meta admits that Facebook has too much spam and will launch a new round of crackdown on SPAM.

Meta admits that Facebook has too much spam content, and will launch a new round of crackdown. SPAMMeta admits that Facebook has too much spam content, and will launch a new round of crackdown. SPAMMeta announced that Facebook will strengthen the quality of its content, targeting those accounts that attract users with long and irrelevant headlines, reducing their reach rate and depriving them of monetization. In the hope of improving the user browsing experience, while suppressing false interactions and false propaganda networks. However, Meta has not responded clearly to the problem of spam generated by artificial intelligence, which has attracted attention from the outside world. In its latest statement, Meta admitted that Facebook News may not always produce fresh and attractive posts, so it plans to adjust the algorithm to reduce the influence of certain content producers. These creators often post long, distracting or unrelated messages, and Meta said it would no longer allow such accounts to earn revenue in order to improve the overall content level. At the same time, Meta has also stepped up its campaign against coordinated fake interaction networks, including hiding messages from related accounts and deleting pages aimed at “hype reach”. The company is also testing a new feature that allows users to anonymously reduce the visibility of false or useless messages in an attempt to better manage the quality of social media interactions. Meta’s move comes as it revamps Facebook in an attempt to attract more young adult users. Mark Zuckerberg previously introduced the platform’s return to the “original Facebook” design, and restarted the hashtag of exclusive friend content, hoping to respond to the young people’s thirst for real social networking. However, the failure of this measure to address the widely-watched issue of AI-generated spam calls into question the effectiveness of the crackdown. In the past year, a large number of nonsensical, even ridiculous AI-generated photos have flooded Facebook, including “Jesus the Shrimp”, which is specifically designed to attract user interaction and earn advertising revenue. According to a 404 Media survey, such content is often fueled by Facebook’s algorithm, which promotes the spread of spam. Even though Meta has publicly promised to improve the quality of its content, it has not yet dealt with the spread of AI-generated spam head-on. In addition to AI-generated images, Facebook News Feeds are also full of screenshots repeating old Reddit posts, or outdated celebrity news that has nothing to do with users’ interests, seriously affecting the user experience. Meta’s most popular content reports often feature cookie-cutter interactive bait, such as asking users to leave a message or solve a simple math problem. Although these posts may not fit the scope of this crackdown, users in general have little interest in such content. Meta emphasizes that in addition to restricting bad content accounts, the company will also increase the exposure of original creators and take action against accounts that steal other people’s works. However, the barrier to creating AI spam is significantly lower than generating high-quality original content, so Facebook still has a long way to go to clean up spam. Data source: Fortune, Engadget
