The tensions were high inside the dead before Mark Zuckerberg The first meeting of this year.
The questions submitted by the employee to the CEO touched on a few major topics: concerns about his announcement “Low tools” It will be left on February 10 Changes on moderation policies in Meta content DEI programs, and its suspension Joe Rogan About the desire for more “male energy” in the workplace. “Are the changes we see (in any way) are affected by the new American president?” One employee asked before the internal meeting. “If so, then why do we make changes based on these factors?”
With a lot of arrangement and file on the edge of the abyss, Zuckerberg is sure that there will be less chances of drama during a question and answer today. Before you start, the human resources informed the employees that “we will exceed the questions that we expect to be unproductive if they leak.” For the first time, the questions of the employees are no longer the first in the first place for everyone to see and the comments were suspended during the live broadcast.
Before jumping to questions and answers, Zuckerberg treated the changes directly: “We are trying to really open and then everything I say.
“We will try to address all the main topics and topics, but, where we are now, there is just a group of things that I think destroys for me to talk about,” continued. “So I just will not talk about these.” (Mita refused to comment on this story.)
There are still some things that Zuckerberg was comfortable to treat. Fears of changing the policy of returning to the office? “I didn’t focus on this at all. I think the current situation is good. Download.” The logical basis behind the termination of some employee privileges, such as free EV charging in the office, when Meta prints money? “Part of the reason that we are in a financially good condition is that we are on the costs.”
What about the “low -performance” workers? He said: “The right thing to do is just to torn the first aid.” “I think, in many ways, is one of the most beautiful people who may not end up making it anyway.”
Zuckerberg explains his decision in a golden chain and a long -sleeved white shirt, his decision to end the dead diversity and fair and inclusive programs: “I think that the direction of politics and organizational and legal guidance in many of these things is that you can“ can ”that you can do things that benefit from specific groups , Even if you are trying to compensate for other things. “
He pointed out that we are “likely to re -” training on the unconscious bias of employees, but this will not “focus” on “a few groups of the representative species an incomplete representation of people.” Janel JillThe head of Meta in human resources, then jumped to say, “We have no tolerance with harassment or discrimination of any kind”, which the company will continue to employ from a wide range of talents “and” celebration “in the month of black history.
For the reason for fixing dead content rules Allowing things like calling people are “mentally ill”, “ Zuckerberg frame the decision in this way: “There was a set of policies that we implemented over time. This type of what people could say in our services. Frankly, we were just a way out of the main current. When we say that someone could say something In our services, this does not necessarily mean that we agree with this thing. This only means that we want to be a platform where people can discuss things.
Zuckerberg has often started the meeting, its predictions on artificial intelligence and smart glasses From Meta’s profit call The previous day. He went to more details about the company’s smart glasses with Ray Ban, which he said sold more than a million units last year. (This is the first time that Meta has participated in a large -scale sales of glasses on a large scale.)
“Many great success products in their third generation have reached 5 to 10 million units,” Zuckerberg said. “So I think one of the questions for us is, will we move from one million this year to 2 million? Are we going from one million to 5 million?”
Although he did not mention this during the meeting, Meta plans to present a pair of expensive smart glasses with a head -followed follow -up screen, Hypernova, later this year. It was not designed by Ray-Ban or its mother company Essilorluxotica, but I expect the glasses giant to play a role in its commercial offering. Meta also works with Essilorluxotica on Oakley Smart glasses for athletes.
Zuckerberg said at today’s meeting: “We have been invented mainly and our competitors did not really appear after that,” Zuckerberg said at today’s meeting. “I think we will start seeing some of that, perhaps later this year, and perhaps next year. But we have this open field at the present time to run and provide the largest possible number of people to deadly artificial intelligence glasses and we must take this opportunity.”
Some other outstanding points of Zuckerberg’s question and answer:
Work with the Trump administration: “We now have an opportunity to get a fruitful partnership with the United States government and we will take it. I think this is the right thing to do because there are many areas, even if we do not agree on everything, where we have a common reason for the things that you will make so that we can serve Our society is better and we can advance the interests of our country together … We will do its work in a way that we will not go down any of our principles or values.
Meta AI planChatgPt competitor contains “about 700 million users”, and Zuckerberg believes that it will reach one billion users this year. “We know from building a lot of things over the past twenty years that the services can come and go somewhat, but once something gets it to make them more attractive this year. We will focus a lot on customization as one of the main topics on this.”
Competition with paid AI products such as ChatGPT: “I am always looking for ways in which we can turn the strength of our business model to presenting a high -quality product to people … We have a competitive model with the best models there and offer it free. We are not shipping $ 20, $ 200 per month or anything else. Now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, I think there may be a chance to do more … We can provide high -quality answers, which other people in the industry can provide and make it free.
Amnesty International on social media: “I think it is in the next few years, we will have all kinds of nutrition units that are more interactive … I think we have this year in which you have an AI agent in a video clip in your summary, but then you can only start talking to, directing and putting them All these interesting questions.
Meta efforts to build Amnesty International Engineer: Does this mean that we will not need engineers? In fact, the opposite. If one of the engineers can now do a hundred times of work, I want more engineers, right? I think we will be able to train AIS to do better than many human auditors … Perhaps this is not the case in this type of face until next year. “
Depsik: “Whenever I see another person, he would do something, I am like,” Oh, come on! We should have been there, right? we [have] You should make sure we are. “
Tikhak’s ban: “I’m quite sure whatever happens, I am very confident that Facebook and Instagram rollers will continue to grow … Who will have Tiktok at the end of the year? What will happen? This is a big problem.”
His letter separating the employees: “It will be an intense year, so the bustle. We have a lot to do. I’m excited about it.”
