Discord claims "most users" will never go through an age verification process because they're already monitoring your behavior.

For the majority of adult users, we will be able to confirm your age group using information we already have. We use age prediction to determine, with high confidence, when a user is an adult. This allows many adults to access age-appropriate features without completing an explicit age check.

Gotta say, constant behavior analysis is not the warm and fuzzy blanket they seem to think it is.

A Safer Discord by Default: New Teen Safety Updates

Discord is rolling out global teen safety updates designed to create age-appropriate experiences by default.

@mttaggart How is determining someone's age with "high confidence" useful?

I mean, how high is it?

I can determine someone's age with "high confidence" just by asking them about it.

Because most people don't lie.

Surely Age Verification is not that trivial.

@mttaggart It's like your bank asking you what your name is before handing you (someone else's) money.
