MetaThe company was recently inFacebookTested a newAI ReviewA summary feature designed to help users quickly get an overall view of the comments below the post. This feature will summarize the user's comments and display the summary content at the top of the comment section, providing a general overview of the discussion.
The launch of this feature has generated a lot of attention, especially in the context of the current social media platforms that are constantly looking to improve the user experience.Meta wanted to use this feature to provide users with a more convenient way to quickly access the discussion of a post. However, some users have questioned this feature, arguing that it may detract from the core function of social media. The comment section is supposed to be a place for users to interact and express their personal opinions, and the presence of AI summaries may cause users to be less inclined to view comments post by post, thus affecting the activity of social interactions.
In the real-world application of AI summaries, users are presented with succinct summaries that may cover some common ideas or topics of discussion. However, users may also feel that these summaries lack depth and cannot replace otherwise rich and varied commentary content. Some social media experts believe that this approach may change the way users engage, leading to more people relying on AI-generated content rather than actively participating in discussions.
Meta said that users can choose to turn off this feature at any time and revert to the traditional way of displaying comments. The move is seen as Meta taking user feedback seriously and aims to preserve users' freedom of choice on the platform.
