"There's going to be SSI content on IG and FB for the near future. The existing classifiers are not hard to game."

Karina Newton: "ps: i find it to be a very weird world we're living in where fb leadership is making threshold decisions of ig hashtags?" ████: "It's strange and unwelcome." ████: "So you're not alone." ████: "It's also the wrong level of granularity of discussion, imo." ████: "We keep pretending there's a purely technical solution." ████: "There's going to be SSI content on IG and FB for the near future. The existing classifiers are not hard to game." ████: "And (as you noted) false positive become a bigger concern as we adjust thresholds." Karina Newton: "it's bananas" ████: "I'd almost rather go from 30% to >0% as opposed to gradual steps. At least that's easy to explain." Karina Newton: "it doesn't seem like we are critically identifying what problems we're trying to solve for and what the actual business risk for those problems is. and by we i mean 'fb leadership'" Karina Newton: "the biggest issue underlying all of this is less about the content but what is appropriate for teens and pre-teens and the elephant in the room there is age – I would be putting our efforts in addressing that core issue" Karina Newton: "ie if we collected age on IG we could age-gate this content (assuming ssi classifiers worked) and if we used age classifiers we could detect under 13s and kick them off the platform so they wouldn't have access to content that's not appropriate for them to find)" Karina Newton: "that's the actual policy on fire risk" ████: "It feels more like 'do we listen to experts or the media when they disagree?'" Karina Newton: "who we listen to is critical" ████: "Makes sense for SSI. Drugs, CT..." ████: "Those are a bit different." Karina Newton: "yeah, i hear you" Karina Newton: "ty, glad to be living in bananas world with you two" Max Eulenstein: "it's an exciting time :)" Karina Newton: "yes, so many opportunities for growth :)"
