Keeping The World Safe, One Video Of A Kitten Drinking Water At A Time

~ James Viscosi

So last week, the automated processes at Facebook did this:

The “problematic” content:

I would assume their AI keyed off the word “drinking” in the title of the video and got upset because … the video isn’t about drinking alcohol? 🤷‍♂️ But hey, if you want to post all kinds of lies that incite people to violence or fake AI pictures that you’re passing off as real or whatever, that’s fine.

If you are thinking that the animals are going to get some mileage out of this over on their blog, congratulations! You probably remember that time Oona and Bean accidentally took over Twitter. I needed a new storyline for them anyway …

  4. Obviously no real person actually looked at the video. The junk that they fill my feed with is so irritating that quite often I just go directly to the pages I want to see content from rather than waiting for it to show up in my feed.

    1. My theory on the video is their automated process keyed off the “Drinking” in the title somehow, but who knows why the AIs do what they do … Same for me on the feed, there’s a lot of crap in there these days!
