Apple's parental controls are HORRIBLE. There is at least 20% false positives there, that flag all sorts of absolutely benign sites as "adult".
Any kind of machine-based contextual analysis of users' content will be a disaster.
- robertoandred 5y agoGood news! It's not doing contextual analysis of content. It's comparing image hashes.
- wellthisisgreat 5y agooh that's actually kind of good news then. I couldn't believe Apple wouldn't know about the inadequacy of their PC
- pseudalopex 5y agoYou confused the 2 new features. The child pornography detector compares perceptual hashes. The iMessage filter tries to classify sexually explicit images.
- wellthisisgreat 5y agoCould you explain please - can these hash comparisons be extended to other areas such as contextual analysis of photos or texts? For example would it be easy now to get to the hypothetical scenario where texts containing certain phrases will be flagged if some partner / regulator demands that? Or doing face recognition on images, etc.? Or is this still completely different from that
