EU tells Elon Musk 'huge work ahead' for Twitter
Elon Musk has been told he faces "huge work ahead" to bring Twitter into compliance with new European rules on disinformation or face a possible ban.He said the social media site would have to address issues such as content moderation, disinformation and targeted adverts.
"Let's also be clear that there is still huge work ahead, as Twitter will have to implement transparent user policies, significantly reinforce content moderation and protect freedom of speech, tackle disinformation with resolve, and limit targeted advertising," he said. "All of this requires sufficient AI and human resources, both in volumes and skills. I look forward to progress in all these areas and we will come to assess Twitter's readiness on site.
"Our trust & safety team continues its diligent work to keep the platform safe from hateful conduct, abusive behavior, and any violation of Twitter's rules," the company added. "The team remains strong and well-resourced, and automated detection plays an increasingly important role in eliminating abuse," it said.
