20VC: Reid Hoffman on The Trump Administration | Elon Musk and DOGE | The US Defence Budget, NATO and The War in Ukraine | China, Tariffs and TikTok | The Future of Chips, Nuclear Energy, Quantum Computing and Climate

probably being created by russian intelligent assets to destabilize the us it goes oh that looks right to me and then he'll retweet it that's correct and so it's the same impulse which has created these amazing things but also has these destructive things should one not have policing on tweets i had this debate before with many american guests and i'm like that can be very dangerous and damaging to have someone retweet with his power and weight to the audience that he does

Well, so I think there's a really interesting distinction between freedom of speech and freedom of reach. If you're standing at the local corner and standing on a soapbox and saying, the moon is made out of blue cheese and the earth is flat and so forth, it's fine, go ahead. When we have our collective media systems, e.g.

reach, it's important to have some ability to say, well, we should bring in studies and expertise into it. And by the way, this is what we've made progress with science. This is how we've made progress with law, is we use thoughtful groups of people to bring a notion of truth. In science, it's reproducibility of science experience.

It's scientific panels which decide on things being advocated as true. In juries, you have, in the US, 12 people who listen to it and have to agree. That's the way we do things. And so we need to kind of figure out how to apply that also within, call it,

Well, so, look, if I could, through a democratic process, because I believe in democracies, I believe in collective governance, get our society to agree to say, hey, what we should do is identify some topics that panels of experts can yield to a truth determination on. What I would prefer we do with all media, and by the way, it's not just social media. It's also cable news. It's also talk radio.

We say, look, if you're going to speak your opinion, which you may do, you can say the world is flat. I can get on Harry's podcast and go, I believe the world is flat. And then what you say is, oh, by the way, expert opinion says that's completely false.

And just along with my saying, the world is flat, expert opinion comes up and says, hey, by the way, if you're listening to this, you should also consider that expert opinion says this is totally false, right? And so it allows you freedom of speech, but it then allows a collective learning system. And it says, I would prefer that, but we need to get there through a democratic process.
