Big Companies are focused on AI because they don't want to have to deal with having to pay for real people because real people complained when they feel mistreated but robots won't.
It's also traumatizing for people having to see so much death and violence. The corporations (or more accurately their "contractors") are notorious for not providing the breaks of work and therapeutic counseling needed for workers who see more sickening events in a work week than most soldiers encounter in their entire career.

It all boils down to standards and social norms amongst society and communities. Unfortunately, you cannot apply the same standards of acceptable moderations with every corner of the globe. What's acceptable in Turkey may not fit with conservative Alaskan county. For example, in Iran, the football club Roma (Italian football club) had their team logo blurred on Iran tv broadcast channel because the Roma football club logo contained wolf puppies suckling on their mothers breast.

The answer is privacy. Instead of commoditizing data, sites should return to paid memberships to make money. And in order to prevent bad things just shift to an immoral competitor, require the companies to say in their privacy policies that they would commit to notify each source of data (the users) of the monetization of their information.

We didn't have content moderation without Information Technology, what makes some of these folks think that they can moderate content now? Human content moderators will have their own biases and our AI is not smart enough to pick off everything. If AI was just as smart as humans, than they will have human biases too. I think it is a pointless effort. People are just going to need to learn to be more critical of the information they receive, adapt to the Information Age and realize the consequence of their actions. It is the new reality we live in. The solution to making people smarter in our current Information Age is to invest in early education (pay school teachers more, add computing classes at an early age), reduce higher education cost (especially predatory student loans) and lower cost of access to computing power and internet (break the internet company monopolies).

Agreed. As someone who does a lot of ML, it seems like this calls for an active-learning approach largely driven by AI, with a small number of experts. Hopefully, we can start laying the foundation for this ASAP from the human side as well by curating a small well-paid, well-treated team of domain experts to be the humans in the AI loop, so to speak.
freedom of speech has nothing to do with social media companies lol, it pretty much just means u can say things ab the government without them arresting you. its so overused
Free speech is very important just look at any country who censored it and what happens if you break that law. Can you imagine if you couldn't speak out about Trump and if you did death or imprisonment was punishment.
So I'm censored from using Twitter simply for having poor signal mobile device reception? How can I get on Twitter if I don't have a mobile phone, they demand a mobile phone number to send a confirmation SMS. I owned one for a day to realize that I live in a dead zone so I took it back.
Until AI improves and is implemented into the internet as complete content moderation then these people working in the profession of content moderators should be at the top of these tec companies concern in the sense of human welfare and proper financial compensation and support. This all sound like the job of content moderation is like having a job in a psychological abuse factory, it's all kind of messed up... We need AI responsibility programed AI with human safety & wellbeing in mind, the internet isn't a safe or secure environment as currently functioning...
The earth revolving around the sun theory would be censored as misinformation in todays content moderation climate. Just like Galileo was sentenced to house arrest for something that we know now is true. Wrong think and unpopular opinions should not be moderated. The only thing that is moderated should be things that are actually illegal.
The issue about content moderation is when the moderator makes a human error in moderating content. It's like sentencing a truly innocent convict to prison.
Bad lies don’t need to be hidden, but bad truths do,.. hence censorship,.. it’s my responsibility to disseminate the words I read. Do you really want that responsibility ?
This shouldn't exist. I support free speech and social media companies should as well. All I gotta say is be careful what you wish for. They WILL come for you or someone you like eventually. Also, apparently these companies think they can find people who are omniscient apparently. These are the people who would be banning users for saying that Iraq didn't really have weapons of mass destruction.
Misinformation and hate speech on social media has been responsible for many deaths for the last decade. So i believe content moderation is necessary. But, there should be a transperancy on how a social media post is seen as misinformation or hate speech.

Maybe add a button that says something is you know...fake that the community can vote on?
Posts like these prevented me from accepting an offer from once of those mentioned third-party vendors for a content moderation role. I’m so grateful for the comprehensive available reports from (former) employees. It almost feels like I ditched a bullet. Idk how it would have impacted my mental health. Please seek help if you’re stuck in this role. There is always an alternative way to earn a living. I hope the conditions improve for all those honorable people around the world who prevent us from trauma by making such a sacrifice.
Reddit just delegated content moderation to sub reddit moderators
Agreed. As someone who does a lot of ML, it seems like this calls for an active-learning approach largely driven by AI, with a small number of experts. Hopefully, we can start laying the foundation for this ASAP from the human side as well by curating a small well-paid, well-treated team of domain experts to be the humans in the AI loop, so to speak.
New title: Why suppressing information and free speech costs social media companies billions
This is coming... so glad!
Twitter lost a billion per day after making their recent bans with a bias..
freedom of speech has nothing to do with social media companies lol, it pretty much just means u can say things ab the government without them arresting you. its so overused
we'll just go somewhere else. Their loss
Free speech is very important just look at any country who censored it and what happens if you break that law. Can you imagine if you couldn't speak out about Trump and if you did death or imprisonment was punishment.
So I'm censored from using Twitter simply for having poor signal mobile device reception? How can I get on Twitter if I don't have a mobile phone, they demand a mobile phone number to send a confirmation SMS. I owned one for a day to realize that I live in a dead zone so I took it back.
4:22 He was told to blink during the interview. Blinking technology is the latest and greatest development done by Facebook engineers.
I didn’t realize all this ensues in the background
let the moderators do their job in their propaganda machine yes CNBC
Content moderators should be paid at least $50,000/year.
They are paid however much it takes until they are willing to work for the money.
They should be fired and paid 0
£30k-£40k, 50k is a lot
Until AI improves and is implemented into the internet as complete content moderation then these people working in the profession of content moderators should be at the top of these tec companies concern in the sense of human welfare and proper financial compensation and support. This all sound like the job of content moderation is like having a job in a psychological abuse factory, it's all kind of messed up...
We need AI responsibility programed AI with human safety & wellbeing in mind, the internet isn't a safe or secure environment as currently functioning...
BS
RJVX12 algorithm is the best, there is no point in arguing with this
"platform moderation" you mean publisher
*It's easy , Just remove Comments section.*
They are stupid to spend that money. How about anything goes? Thats free.
Silicon valleay = nsa west
Mussolini said the exact same words..."exactly" 😉
I like the ideal of free speech, but the sad reality is that most people don't have much to say that's worth hearing.
How long?????
Because paying workers is expensive? Let's raise the min wage.
We are really living in weird times.
I'm the CEO of beamer nice video
follow the 4chan moderation model, they'll do it for free
lol
Karen to the rescue
Pepe isn't racist.
The earth revolving around the sun theory would be censored as misinformation in todays content moderation climate. Just like Galileo was sentenced to house arrest for something that we know now is true. Wrong think and unpopular opinions should not be moderated. The only thing that is moderated should be things that are actually illegal.
What about misinformation?
The issue about content moderation is when the moderator makes a human error in moderating content. It's like sentencing a truly innocent convict to prison.
13:36 "Apple and Android" lol
Question: Could you also refer to "Civil Unrest" as "Uncivil rest"? I'm serious, really curious, need your opinions, thanks.
No since uncivil means a person who is rude/impolite.
So it would mean there is a impolite/rude rest, which dont make any sense.
They’re just plan overreaching.
Bad lies don’t need to be hidden, but bad truths do,.. hence censorship,.. it’s my responsibility to disseminate the words I read. Do you really want that responsibility ?
This shouldn't exist. I support free speech and social media companies should as well.
All I gotta say is be careful what you wish for. They WILL come for you or someone you like eventually.
Also, apparently these companies think they can find people who are omniscient apparently. These are the people who would be banning users for saying that Iraq didn't really have weapons of mass destruction.
what
Misinformation and hate speech on social media has been responsible for many deaths for the last decade. So i believe content moderation is necessary. But, there should be a transperancy on how a social media post is seen as misinformation or hate speech.
No it hasn't commie
hatw speech is not illegal
people are to soft to hear that....and want content remove
Are you even on the internet if you never accentually saw a beheading
or two girls and one cup..
