The alternative is Facebook with lies that go unchecked completely. This is actually an area where AI is not bad.

just because it is a solution doesn’t mean its a good solution or even better than no solution

If i’s implemented the right way, it could be. AI can be used for good things even of the knee-jerk reaction of so many people online is to equate it with crap.

Recoiling upon smelling shit is also a kneejerk reaction

its always this same bullshit, “if we just implemented this correctly” where can an AI participate in fact-checking? It can’t be trusted because of hallucinations, so the solution would be to uh… manually review everything it does? just rely on third parties to do it? What ACTUAL USE does this shit have?

It couldn’t be. Lying bias machine that gives people psychosis can’t magically stop being what it is. So it will always be terrible and unnecessary at best, harmful at regular.
