I want to curate my feed to mostly just contain serious people. Doesn’t matter whether I agree with their views or not - it’s all about how those views are expressed. So many people on social media are just thrilled to have a megaphone and the ability to make noise. I don’t like noise.
For example, right now there are people who opened the thread just because I put “AI” in the title and they can’t wait to share their views about AI in the comments as if it’s meaningfully relevant to what I’m saying. They know what I mean, but you can’t just miss an opportunity to score a few points dunking on AI, can you?
Whatever gene makes people want to shout these thought-terminating clichés, upvote others who do it, and find some sense of belonging from it is clearly missing from me. I’d rather just not even hear about it - it’s extremely exhausting and has never achieved anything worthwhile.
It doesn’t really matter whether most people like the smell of your farts or not - you’re still poisoning the air.
You’ve had it for over a decade. Go check out Facebook.
It’s maximized for engagement, not your pleasure.
How exactly is Facebook the answer to what I’m asking?
It is AI powered content filtering which does not rely on keywords.
I obviously want to set the filters myself.
Except if you’re relying on AI, you’ve already given up that level of control and are letting the system decide for you.
In your example, how would you continue to train the model for feedback loops and false positives? That isn’t an AI question, but just a general system design question.
At that point, would you go through a weekly recap of posts to see what may have slipped by? The real issue is going to be detecting sarcasm.
