Facebook admits its AI failed to flag the New Zealand terror attack livestream.
blamed users for not flagging the video more quickly, as the social media giant continued to fend off criticism for allowing the worst terror attack in New Zealand's history to be broadcast live and in full on its platform.
However, the video originated on Facebook, and the company's AI did not flag the livestream of the attacks, which claimed the lives of at least 50 people. That original footage was viewed almost 200 times while it was live, Facebook said. AI technology requires "training data," "thousands of examples of content" to learn how to detect problem speech, text, images or videos, Rosen wrote. "This approach has worked very well for areas such as nudity, terrorist propaganda and also graphic violence where there is a large number of examples we can use to train our systems."
"The ISIS problem was partially cracked because the [tech] companies infiltrated all their Telegram channels. So you could grab a video and block it before the first upload attempt. No equivalent chokepoint here," Stamos said, referring to the New Zealand attack. "The first user report on the original video came in 29 minutes after the video started, and 12 minutes after the live broadcast ended," Rosen wrote.
