Administrators of popular pro-Palestine groups are spreading antisemitic hate on Facebook, and parent company Meta isn’t doing enough to stop them, Jessica Guynn reports.
That’s the finding of a new study from the Center for Countering Digital Hate. Tests run by researchers in 10 Facebook groups with a combined 300,000 members found that the majority – 76% – of anti-Jewish hate speech was ignored by administrators, and 91% of accounts posting anti-Jewish hate were not removed.
Read the story to find out what happened when researchers reported the posts to Facebook.
Sam Altman to donate much of his wealth to charity
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has pledged to donate the majority of his wealth, joining other billionaires contributing hundreds of millions of dollars to philanthropic causes, Anthony Robledo reports.
In a letter posted to the Giving Pledge earlier this month, the 39-year-old entrepreneur and his husband, Oliver Mulherin, said the money will be dedicated to supporting technology that "helps create abundance for people."
Altman is worth at least $2 billion, but no thanks to OpenAI, the firm responsible for ChatGPT.
Where did all his money come from?
