Facebook is building a hidden social networking platform for bots |
Facebook hopes to prevent people from abusing its platform, and urges it to create a robotic social network platform dedicated solely to understanding user behavior in the real world so the new platform can do the invisible simulation of the real Facebook platform, but people don't see it.
Facebook researchers have published articles about the Web Enabling Simulation Project.
The document states, "This project is a simulation of user community behavior on a software platform. The project uses software systems that are generally activated on the network to simulate real user interaction and social behavior on real infrastructure developed by real users. Isolated."
Robot is a standalone online program that can interact with the system or with users. The document also adds: "The multiple proxy method is used to model user behavior in the system (web simulation), where each proxy program is all robots that mimic user behavior."
New platforms and robots must be isolated from the real Facebook platform and its users. The project enables robots to simulate user behavior, for example these include sending friend requests, liking and commenting on other user posts, harassment, attacks and fraud.
According to Facebook, the primary goal of the platform is to better understand the behavior of real users and prevent scammers and pranksters from disturbing the platform so that robots can try to destroy social norms in a safe and isolated environment to test technologies that prevent real villains from rape. Violation of community norms.
This new AI-powered platform includes robots programmed to trick other users or hurt them maliciously and target other users in the same way that con artists or villains do on the real Facebook platform.
Facebook may offer the option to only read some robots on its platform to better understand user behavior in the real world without violating privacy rules. However, researchers warn that robots must be linked with real robots to isolate users to ensure that the simulation does not participate in unexpected interactions between the robot and the real user.
The researchers said: "With the spread of community behavior in software applications such as travel, accommodation, entertainment and shopping, and the social system enables each user to benefit from it." From the group user experience, the simulation results can be widely published on the platform. others. ""
Facebook reportedly published geolocation data earlier this month to help researchers understand if people live in their homes, and the data also helps predict the spread of the Coruña virus. Virus collects 2.5 billion active users every month.
