Facebook is now developing a tool to read people’s minds. No, this isn’t an extrapolation. The social media giant, which is currently under fire from regulators around the world is developing a neural sensor to detect people’s thoughts, and to convert them into action.

On Tuesday, the company also announced plans to come up with a tool which would summarise news articles for readers without reading any.

The announcements were in Facebook’s end-of-year company meeting. Facebook has been mired with controversies about user data, growing employee discontent, and multiple lawsuits in the world.

Schroepfer added that AI is the key too in battling hate speech, misinformation, and content related issues. According to him, Facebook is now able to detect 95 per cent of all hate speech on the platform.

Currently, the company is caught up in antitrust lawsuit in the United States, while Australia is forcing Facebook to pay journalists for news content. In addition, the European Union is also clamping down on social media giants.
