you're watching out of the i would me, elizabeth put on and don't have a mind to about top stories. the solid. at least 42 palestinians have been killed in this way. any attacks garza and the past 24 hours. most of the casualties of, of the southern city of con eunice families who had been sheltering in a school that was formed by us run on saturday. have a change of the building because there's nowhere else to go to moving a 100 people were killed in that attack. and 5 pauses of struggling to contain a massive blaze on the outskirts of athens as options increase of actuation towns that hospitals claims to store homes and forests. the fire was being found high temperatures and strong winds. to us presidential candidates,
6:18 am
donald trump has returned to the social media platform x. the republican joined a one on one discussion with 8 on mosque. the event wants delayed by technical failure, leaving thousands complaining must claim to failure on a hacking attack without providing evidence. the tech building it has endorsed the former president's campaign, and this housing him raise funds. will match been the is a senior technology proposal for measurable that's a technology and culture news website. he's joining us live from new york. thank you very much for your time, matt. firstly, how problematic is it for the owner of one of the biggest tech companies, social media companies in the world to interview a u. s. presidential candidate who they also endorse. right. uh, 1st of all, thanks for having me and uh, you know, as we address your question, uh, there's certainly a conflict of interest there, especially with uh, trump,
6:19 am
having been off of x since, you know, back since when it was called twitter. he's been off for that long, and he has a competing platform over at to social and visiting the thing, sorry to interrupt the match, but just on that point about truth social is it, is it competing? that's a good point. um, you know, it is a social media platform that essentially does the exact same thing that ext. uh, so its come its competition in that way. but how many people in your base? yeah. you know, everyone basically goes there who does go there just to see, but trump posts on there. that is the whole purpose. it's basically a, a press release outlet for donald trump's, you know, uh on filter the uncensored thought it felt like this. and basically what that platform is, it sounds like you're talking about the interview that we just watched on x. you know, there was
6:20 am
a lot of misinformation untruths that went challenged in that interview with a non mosque, if you can call it that was the same thing happened when trump debated by didn't on mainstream media a few months ago. is there anything about this taking place on x that makes it move along to the spite of misinformation either at the time or after? right, well i listen to the the spaces interview with musk and trump, you know, musk obviously didn't provide any push back. there was no fact checking there was no correcting of misinformation. it was just, you know, the 2 of them having a conversation as if they were, were friends, you know, and if that's what they want to do on their, that's their prerogative. but no one should be listening it uh, under the belief that they were getting some sort of hard hitting journalism. it was more like a 2 friends having a chat. and that's exactly what monk said at the beginning that he doesn't think that, you know, people are the best doing at the serial interviews. how has ex changed when it
6:21 am
comes to camping down on misinformation, other harmful things such as hate speech? since i'm off to call you back. all right, well there is, there is no misinformation policy at x anymore. there is no, you know, you report something for misinformation or fake news or this information. and there's someone there on the policy team who looks into it. and suspends a user that doesn't exist anymore. the misinformation policy at acts is basically if there is misinformation on the platform, the users, it's up to the users to use the uh, the basically the fact checking feature community notes to add a note on the post that gives it some more context that basically says this is not true, this is what actually happened. the post doesn't get removed, nothing happens to that user. the post just gets a little note put on it. and again, it's up to the users that only put that note on there. button didn't give it enough
6:22 am
votes that it's an accurate note for it to even appear on such a post. so that's as much information policy as for a tate speech policy that's also sort of up in the air. um, if a user uh, basically says some sort of racial slur, it's, you know, it's hit or miss whether they'll be any sort of, um, uh, hard to put on it that basically says, this post won't get promoted or pushed in your feed. do you do it breaking our rules on hate speech? i've seen that note about hate speech. put on a post where use are simply uses the term sis gender, which is not a hate speech term. it's about a slower, but right. that's, uh that's, that's the. yeah. it was under months, you're pointing out the dangers in giving the average use a control of a misinformation and hate speech and given just how much of
6:23 am
a problem those things are in our society at the moment. and what's at stake. democracies being at stake with such a big election coming off of the us and we know how many elections took place more than half the world's population. i believe i was eligible to voice this. yeah. do you think that government, the us government should be doing more to regulate all of this on x on other social media platforms? sure, i mean i, i think it's obvious that especially with the, the, the boom in a i generated images that there needs to be some sort of regulation on, on that aspect of it because there's business issues the wild west right now when it comes to a janitor, generative ai is basically completely unregulated and if you look online right now, the majority of the misinformation right now and it pertains to the presidential election is surrounding a images. you'll see trump supporters creating
6:24 am
a images about the iris campaign. and then you have even the opposite, where there is no a. i generated imagery, there was a photo, there's a photo going around showing the real crowd at one of cala. harris's latest, riley's and some supporters are claiming that that's an a i generated image. and there even a photo shopping images that claim to show what the crowd really looked like, that just completely cuts out and removes the crowd that the people who attended the rally in their entirety. so it looks like she's bedding before and, and the audience. i mean i, i think like, you know, it's not just that the images itself are causing issue. it's that no one can tell if a real image is even a general idea. that means that's really what i've had or of. yeah, i don't really even seeing it on my share a i generation images of coming to have as much as being right. you get your expertise on this. we really appreciate your time. man, behind
