Summary Zuckerberg says that AI will eventually play an even bigger role in flagging inappropriate content.
(Web Desk) - Facebook has announced to form its own electronic chips and processor through which will make it possible to identify terrorism, suicide, murder and other crimes from real time videos while filtering them in an effective manner.
The company is looking to hire a manager tasked with assembling an “end-to-end SoC / ASIC, firmware, and driver development organization.”
In 2010, Apple Inc. started shipping its own chips and now uses them across many of its major product lines. Alphabet Inc.’s Google has developed its own artificial intelligence chip as well. Amazon is said to be developing chips to improve Alexa’s AI smarts.
Facebook could use such chips to power hardware devices, artificial intelligence software and servers in its data centers.
Next month, the company will launch the Oculus Go, a $200 standalone virtual-reality headset that runs on a Qualcomm processor. Facebook is also working on a slew of smart speakers.
Mark Zuckerberg has said that AI will eventually play an even bigger role in flagging inappropriate content across the social network than it does currently, though it’s really not a viable solution for the company’s deeper issues.
