IMO facebook should stop "engagement based" recommendation engines until they have the ability to stop them being abused. Change the platform to show chronological posts from things users have subscribed to. They could perhaps have a curated selection of content that FB employees have screened to be good for general distribution.
There is a world of difference between someone manually seeking out and subscribing to a misinformation source than FB automatically suggesting it to them.

That is definitely one opinion that you can hold about Facebook but it's unclear to me how it relates to this post about Google's new generative model

I don't think google is responsible for the content created any more than Windows is for running the program or your ISP is for serving it. Promotion and discovery are the places where moderation and responsibility come in.

They did ban such videos and now people take videos like this seriously. Don't be so naive. This is a PR message, nothing else.
The whole banning spree did more damage to vaccine acceptance than flat earther and lizard people together. It isn't even comparable. Because of course they ended up censoring legitimate criticism and scientific data. That was inevitable, no matter how well intended.
Now they made themselves unreliable because someone on the internet was crazy.
