Xiao Zha returned to his alma mater Harvard to give a lecture: All social networks will inevitably revolve around chatting | live22 slot online, slot gacor jp maxwin

According to foreign media reports, Mark Zuckerberg, the head of Facebook, has a lot on his mind and has prepared an unscripted talk.

The Facebook CEO returned to his alma mater on Wednesday to discuss the many issues facing Facebook and the platform. Zuckerberg joined a conversation with Jonathan Zitstrain, director of the Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society at Harvard Law School.

The conversation was the first of several planned speeches by Zuckerberg, who announced in January that he would "host a series of public discussions about the future role of new technologies in society" as part of his 2019 personal challenge.

The two had a serious conversation for an hour and 45 minutes about privacy, surveillance, misinformation and other issues.

Zuckerberg isn’t entirely candid — he’s good at hitting on Facebook’s talking points — but the conversation is a rare example of some of Zuckerberg’s off-the-cuff conversations and even a semblance of sincerity.

The CEO didn't reveal anything new. "I'm not sitting here announcing a new project," Zuckerberg said as he discussed some hypotheticals, but the discussion did provide a chance to see what he thinks on some far-reaching issues.

Here are seven key points Mark Zuckerberg discussed at Harvard University.

1. Facebook does not want to provide spam content

When it comes to the type of content Facebook serves you, Zuckerberg emphasized that he's more concerned with decisions that will strengthen Facebook in the long run than short-term profits.

Providing clickbait content or manipulative conspiracy ads could cause dissatisfaction with Facebook, he said. This is similar to Zuckerberg’s announcement in January 2018 that Facebook’s News Feed would re-prioritize content from friends and family.

2. Integrating chat tools is no joke

Early in the conversation, Zuckerberg made the case for unified policies governing Facebook’s mobile chat platform. It's a move Zuckerberg confirmed during a fourth-quarter earnings call and was first reported by The New York Times.

Zuckerberg and Ztereon chatted about the benefits and risks of end-to-end encryption. Zuckerberg pointed out that Facebook’s messaging tool WhatsApp is end-to-end encrypted, and another subordinate chat tool Messenger has this option, but encryption is not enabled by default.

Zuckerberg said: "It doesn't make sense to have different chat tools and different (encryption) strategies."

3. A bit contradictory on privacy issues

There are relatively few instances in which Mark Zuckerberg has succeeded in putting his foot in his mouth (i.e. contradicting himself) in a conversation. But one time Zuckerberg apparently forgot about his video chat hardware product, Portal.

When discussing encryption and platform surveillance, Zuckerberg said: "We absolutely do not want to welcome a society where there is a camera in every living room listening to family conversations."

Interlocutor Zitryon was quick to point out that Facebook itself does have a living room video chat product, which briefly derailed Mark with a shy and embarrassed laugh. But Zuckerberg made it clear that because the Portal hardware works on top of Messenger (and Zuckerberg is planning to encrypt its communications), it will be secure. Additionally, Facebook stipulated at launch that the portal hardware would not spy on users.

4) Facebook should not be the "arbiter of truth."

One of Facebook’s most thorny issues since the 2016 U.S. presidential election has been how to mitigate and curb the spread of false information on the platform. Zuckerberg and Zitterian discussed several ways to address the issue, including news reviewers and other independent agencies. But Zuckerberg made it clear that he believed Facebook should not have the power to judge whether it was the truth.

“We don’t want to be the arbiters of truth,” Zuckerberg said.

5. The "Clear History" tool is still under development

Zuckerberg said that Clear History, a tool that will allow Facebook users to clear browsing history data on Facebook, is still under development. But he acknowledged that developing the feature had proven complex and time-consuming.

Zuckerberg explained: "Clearing the history system requires digging into all the different systems." This alludes to the fact that Facebook collects so much data from so many places that cleaning it will be much more difficult than Facebook originally thought.

6. Facebook’s short-term goals are private chat and short-term sharing

Zterien and Zuckerberg concluded their discussion by considering the future of Facebook. Zuckerberg said the way people are using the Facebook app shows they want to chat and share more privately, rather than permanently storing memories.

Zuckerberg said: "There are a lot of things that people don't want to become permanent records, but they want to express them."

First, it means that Zuckerberg and Facebook are well aware of the growth and popularity of mobile chat tools.

Zuckerberg said: "Over the next five years, I think we're going to see all the social networks reorganized around this foundation of private chat. That's something I'm very excited about."

Zuckerberg believes that short-term sharing with friends through the "Stories" feature will replace broadcasting information to everyone through status updates.

Zuckerberg said: “The fastest-growing type of broadcast content people do is stories, which are ephemeral shares. This willGives you a sense of where the center of social activity will go. ”

7. The long-term future of Facebook is... wearable devices?

The conversation takes a strange detour into a high-tech future, where Zuckerberg envisions a future where typing can be done by thinking and feeling (no more typing with hands).

Zuckerberg explained that our current apps and phone-based systems are not integrated into our natural way of communicating, and he believes that new technologies will reshape platforms to be "fundamentally more about people and how we process the world."

For Zuckerberg, this means more hardware that integrates seamlessly with the way we naturally communicate and get information. He's not a huge fan of Google Glass, but he thinks smart glasses (which Zuckerberg says are similar to those worn by his conversation partner, Ztereon) will be a great way to integrate communications, technology and social interaction in the future.
