“I’m like someone who believes people understand. I think people are smarter than people think and can generally make good decisions for their lives. It’s time to do whatever media or anything you think has meaning.

Zuckerberg added, “If people are saying things that seem to be wrong, if it’s not usually misinformation, they usually don’t understand what’s going on in that person’s life, and I think it’s just a kind of paternity in some of the mainstream stories and media stories.”

Zuckerberg argued that the best predictive metric for evaluating a system is whether people find it useful.

“If you’re building something useful to them, they’ll use it,” he said.

“Because whenever you adopt the attitude of ‘Oh, we need to know better than them’, we’re when you lose,” he said. “If you have that attitude long enough, you just become a company of sh —y, you lose, you lose, you lose, you lose, and you are irrelevant.

Zuckerberg reiterated his belief that people are smart enough to make their choices and “in the end, drive society into the direction they enter.”
