AI researchers often don’t understand basic aspects of how biases work in a cultural sense, like they get lost in the technical power and specifications of the machines they make and completely ignore the fact that they are working with a problem where you cannot eliminate bias or subjectivity in your filters, you can only be lucid and clear about what they are and try to minimize them in every way you can.
This kind of narrative, and reasoning is VERY VERY VERY hard to stop once it gets momentum and can lead to a quick degradation of civil rights in a society, especially for younger people.
AI is crap and it is always always always always always going to be worse than putting actual human beings who are professionals into positions where they can stop cyber grooming, bullying or harassment.
Honestly, the fact that people are looking to AI to solve a problem like this inherently shows how little people actually give a fuck about solving this kind of problem shrugs . If kids are experiencing rampant toxic shit online, they need more adults to spend time with them and talk to them who they can trust, they don’t need more computer automated crap surveilling everything they fucking do and randomly dragnetting people with algorithms that are constantly wrong. The problem is that society has deemed children not worth the time for adults to spend quality time with enough that kids would be able to discuss and share these things easier, or that kids only have like a handful of adults in their life they can actually trust and they just don’t feel comfortable talking to any of that handful.
