165934509 story Meta Platforms has disbanded its Responsible Innovation team, which was once a prominent piece of its effort to address concerns about the potential downsides of its products. From a report:
The team had included roughly two dozen engineers, ethicists and others who collaborated with internal product teams and outside privacy specialists, academics and users to identify and address potential concerns about new products and alterations to Facebook and Instagram. Meta spokesman Eric Porterfield said the company remains committed to the team's goals, and that most of its former members would continue similar work elsewhere at Meta, though they aren't guaranteed new jobs. He said the company believed its safe and ethical product design resources were better spent on more issue-specific teams. The team's demise comes at a tumultuous time for Meta, as it contends with a rapid decline in its core digital-advertising business that has caused it to slow hiring in recent months. The chief executive of the social-media giant has been trying to change a lot of the businesses, emphasizing initiatives that can help drive near-term growth or that fit with his longer-term emphasis on the metaverse. The Responsible Innovation team was to have had a formative role in future company products, beginning with encouraging newly hired engineers in how to think about potential drawbacks to what they build and then consulting on the design of specific products.
