Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg wants ‘lively role’ in shaping Trump tech policy: exec

Meta’s top policy executive said Mark Zuckerberg desires to play an “lively role” in shaping tech regulations under President-elect Donald Trump’s administration – and admitted the social media giant “overdid it a bit” while moderating pandemic-related content.

The mea culpa from Nick Clegg, Meta’s head of worldwide affairs, is the newest sign that Zuckerberg is attempting to cozy as much as Trump – who has previously called Facebook “an enemy of the people” and slammed its billionaire founder for censoring conservative viewpoints.

Last week, Zuckerberg raced to Mar-a-Lago for dinner with Trump after reportedly requesting a gathering with the president-elect to debate “the incoming administration.” Afterward, Meta said that Zuckerberg was “grateful for the invitation.”

Earlier this yr, Zuckerberg admitted that the Biden administration pressured Facebook to censor COVID-19 content. AP

In the newest overture, Clegg said Zuckerberg is aiming to have “an lively role within the debates that any administration must have about maintaining America’s leadership within the technological sphere … and particularly the pivotal role that AI will play.”

One other key figure jockeying for influence on AI policy is X owner Elon Musk, who has emerged as a key adviser to Trump and has ceaselessly clashed with Zuckerberg over time.

Zuckerberg wants Meta’s efforts “to enhance the precision and accuracy with which we act on our rules” to be “an area of ongoing focus” at the corporate, Clegg said during Monday’s press briefing, in keeping with the Financial Times.

The previous Liberal Democrat leader within the UK, who drew scorn for entering into bed with the country’s Conservative Party to carve out power, went on to concede that Meta has been too quick to censor content.

“We’re acutely aware — because users quite rightly raised their voice and complained about this — that we sometimes overenforce, we make mistakes and we remove or restrict innocuous or innocent content,” Clegg said.

Meta is locked in a fierce competition with the likes of Google and Microsoft-backed OpenAI to develop advanced artificial intelligence tools. Unlike its rivals, Meta supports an “open source” approach to AI.

Zuckerberg’s appeals to Trump come after the president-elect said he opposed the concept of banning China-owned TikTok partially because it might “make Facebook greater.”

Trump and his allies had targeted Meta as recently as July, accusing the corporate of suppressing information concerning the attempted assassination of the Republican presidential nominee at a July 13 rally.

In August, Zuckerberg shocked the tech industry by admitting that the Biden administration had pressured Facebook to censor content related to COVID-19 in 2021 – including lighthearted memes and satirical posts.

Zuckerberg made the admission in a letter to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio).

The social media titan has also acknowledged that Facebook was fallacious to censor The Post’s exclusive reporting about Hunter Biden’s laptop up to now.
