Dear all,
Some platforms are increasingly dependent on AI for moderation. The issue with this is that an AI moderation system can royally screw up, and when it does it can have serious consequences.
When an automated system for example can SUSPEND an account from a platform for alleged violations (that objectively never occurred) that's egregious.
I am not demonizing AI, it is a great tool generally,but having a human on the backend to catch AIs errors would be sensible to me.

I get that AI helps with especially arduous tasks, but platforms who hand over everything to be handled by AI just strike me as straight up lazy. @2ndchances24
