Twitter confuses rockets for intimate content due to its reliance on machine learning, ex-employee says | Business Insider

An ex-Twitter worker told Quartz the firm keeps misidentifying photos of rockets as intimate media.Twitter flagged rocket videos from some news accounts as"intimate" and suspended their accounts.A former Twitter employee said Elon Musk's company keeps mistaking photos of rockets for intimate content because of the platform's reliance on machine learning tools, The confusion resulted in several Twitter accounts posting about rocket launches getting suspended from the platform.

Quartz interviewed an anonymous ex-employee who used to work on Twitter's content moderation systems. They told the outlet the tools had been known to misidentify appropriate pictures for pornographic content. This could include, for example, a pedicure photo that contains lots of flesh-colored pixels.A Twitter account can be suspended when the tools are 95% certain that the post has broken the platform's rules, the former Twitter content moderator added.

They said in the report that if Twitter wanted to rely less on human moderators, it could reduce the precision thresholds of the machine learning tools, which distinguish sensitive content, without flagging every post as inappropriate. "The downside of doing so is an increase in the rate of errors — in essence, more incorrect censorship," the former employee told Quartz.
