Do you check your spam filter to see what it's been filtering still? Text classification has gotten very reliable over the last decade, the process just needs to be transparent.
Valve also does something similar with their anti-cheat system called overwatch. A machine learning system selects which replays are most likely to result in a conviction, then those replays are shown to human peer-reviewers who must come to a consensus on whether the replay shows cheating or not. The pre-selection stage greatly increases the efficiency of the system.
