A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I don't disagree, but it is a challenging problem. If you're filtering for "die" then you're going to find diet, indie, diesel, remedied, and just a whole mess of other words.
I'm in the camp where I believe they really should be reading all their inputs. You'll never know what you're feeding the machine otherwise.
However I have no illusions that they're not cutting corners to save money
huh? finding only the literal word "die" is a trivial regex, it's something vim users do all the time when editing text files lol
Sure, but underestimating the scope is how you wind up with a Scunthorpe problem
i feel like that's being forced in here, i'm literally just saying that they should scan through any text with the literal word "die" to make sure it's not obviously calling for murder. it's not a complex idea
They could just run the whole dataset through sentiment analysis and delete the parts that get categorized as negative, hostile or messed up.
