> Automation is imperfect
Maybe, just reaaaally maybe, this is not something that should be allowed to be automated.
Could it be?
There are other things in society we do not allow to be automated yet. And this might just be one of them.
This is so disgusting. Made FB already a statement?
- mikkergp 5y agoIt’s not a silver bullet, Human content moderation has its own ethical dilemmas.
- OrsonSmelles 5y agoFrom a slightly cynical perspective, the biggest advantage to human moderation may be psychological: it's easy to choose who to blame for failures and often you can push that blame pretty far down the hierarchy to reduce the impression of organizational responsibility.
- cies 5y agoBut 4 ads inciting violence? C'mon, maybe you let one pass, pretty bad... but 4? Also, I dont think FB would let ads go unchecked in the USA: waaaaay too much hassle in case an "illlegal one" slips through. It's just that FB does not see the need to do that in Myanmar, as that govt can do them little harm.
- mountainb 5y agoTo this day many print, TV, radio, etc. publications manually approve the majority or all of the ads that run in the media. This limits the scaling potential. It also doesn't prevent some ads for criminal offers from running (job ad scams, various mail order scams, investment scams, seminar scams), but it does filter out a lot of things.
