"we've repeatedly had to put p1 improvements like precision tuning on a number of integrity areas to correct for over/under-enforcement (including body positivity??... comments integrity, age-related recommendation tuning, and rabbitholing engineering on the back burner because we're so deeply understaffed"

Alison Lee: "to be honest, i was dismayed that it felt like Adam's response was that we were 'doing enough', going as far as to question 'how much is enough to invest into integrity?'" Alison Lee: "we've repeatedly had to put p1 improvements like precision tuning on a number of integrity areas to correct for over/under-enforcement (including body positivity?? which he used as what felt like defense against NSC), comments integrity, age-related recommendation tuning, and rabbitholing engineering on the back burner because we're so deeply understaffed" Alison Lee: "because our p0 as a team is just to keep basic integrity and non-rec content from surging and foundational engineering improvements, and we're 4 HCs short (and really, we need 8 more engineers and at least 1 more researcher)" Alison Lee: "so to hear adam wonder out loud, 'how much is ever enough?' was frankly a huge disappointment" Lori ████: "I'm not sure I follow this last pt. Are you talking about your specific team or something broader?" Alison Lee: "yes, relevance integrity team" Lori ████: "I understand that. It does feel like a cop out to go to the other extreme and say we could put everyone on this and that wouldn't be the right move." Lori ████: "there are clearly lots of alternatives that could be more helpful to discuss in between the extremes." Alison Lee: "tbh we should actually put everyone on this, because safe experiences = better engagement, no? more equitable experiences, safer, more inclusive would = better engagement. to position resources as 'integrity/wellbeing vs. engagement' feels like a false dichotomy here" Alison Lee: "and part of the reason why we're losing out to tiktok, as well as with young people" Alison Lee: "or at minimum, unsafe experiences = decreased engagement"
