Content Moderation AI is a ticking time bomb waiting to explode

You might see this already, but, I want a second opinion if this is the case or not.<br><br>This is a video from a channel called "KnowYourMeme" (if you dont know the channel, they are a comedic channel that focuses on memes and weyland corporations.) It seems that a video they posted on YouTube is being removed by youtube for violating community guidelines. (Note: the channel is for mature audiences so if you dont like that kind of content, you might not like this).<br><br>The video is about memes that are removed by AI moderation. If you watch the video, it just talks about memes that are taken down by AI moderation. Nothing sexual, no videos, no gore, no graphic, NOTHING. Just regular memes that have been removed. The most jarring thing that happened for me is that they are flagged for something that has been a meme for years, or something that has been a meme for long time. This can be seen as a form of censorship, but it can be seen as something more.<br><br>The video itself, at one point, a jarring thing that was said. This theory stated that the AI that is used for content moderation is biased and takes down content that is not something that the AI agrees on. This is stated in the video, and to be honest, I dont really see this as a conspiracy anymore. This is a problem, as there will be a point where AI will technically control everything on the internet, and if that AI is biased, it will remove everything it disagrees with, which is a problem. As you can see in reality, the biggest sect of people online (Politics) are starting to be removed. Left, right, center, everything is being removed. This should only get worse if we dont do anything about it.<br><br> Millenials may br complaining about this, but zoomers are going to be the ones to deal with this. Thats why we need to do something about it.<br><br>What are your thoughts?<br><br>Watching that video and typing this has made me very worried.
