[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work in social media and am 100% on board with as much regulation as possible.

People don’t understand how many predators there are online. It’s hundreds upon hundreds of thousands, if not millions. I did some consulting with federal LEO on catching people on social media, and there are so many predators, you could put every law enforcement officer from the FBI director to your local mall cop on crimes against children, and they still would only be able to catch and prosecute a small fraction of them.

That’s not even taking into account the death threats women receive online. I’ve worked with multiple women influencers and they get death threats nonstop, along with stalkers.

Men have proven they cannot handle the anonymity of the internet. They absolutely should need an ID to participate. [/quote]

Quite a lot of people know the dangers of predators, its just awful how so many big companies like YouTube keep predators and their channels active on their site still. Then again, they also have an awful AI moderation which someone got falsely flagged for “child safety” over them hitting their microphone on accident.[/quote]

People need to understand you can’t have your cake and eat it, too.

If we’re going to monitor for predators, we need AI to help. The alternative is to pay humans to, and we’ve seen that causes people extreme trauma when they’re exposed to it 8 hours a day, 5 days a week.

AI isn’t going to be perfect right from the beginning. Remember how horrible AI images were 2-3 years ago? It’s improved massively since then. [b]Same with AI moderation. It’s not going to be perfect, but if we want moderation to keep predators away, we need to start somewhere.[/b] YouTube certainly doesn’t want legit creators getting kicked off for no reason, that would be bad for their business.

Not true. Corporations replaced humans with AI and robots only to save money. A lot of them use bots as a way for customer support which I am absolutely against. Most of the time, AI will just repeat the same generic responses if a user were to get help. I know for sure that millions of internet users dont want AI to help them anyway.[/quote]
