Your "the tech companies" is a tell to where the problem lies. In your world only well funded tech companies that can pay for a team of moderators or a team of expensive engineers to develop AI filters will be able to host user generated content. But a lot of times innovation comes from small unfunded individuals.
- ocdtrekkie 9y agoOn the contrary: A couple moderators on a small site have no problem being able to say they don't willfully permit their site to be used for criminal activity. It's only "planet-scale" companies that seem to indicate they can't afford to moderate and review content reasonably. "AI" is not the answer. AI is not adequate or comparable to human moderators which small businesses employ. AI is a "solution" for providing lip service to accountability without spending the money to actually provide any sort of responsible service.

- ocdtrekkie 9y agoThose generating six figure income can get more moderators. :) Of course, they don't, because thanks to Section 230 immunity, they have no obligation to.
