    this is honestly THE best write up of how CSAM detection and perceptual handing works. the visual aids are very helpful in understanding how content is transformed and how detection methods work

    seeing this screenshot and a lot of ₊˚⊹♡ discourse ♡⊹˚₊

    1) this is from 2 years ago, privacy policies change
    2) pretty sure hive deletes customer data after like 2 weeks

    hive is NOT generative AI, they use AI models and traditional ML for spam and abuse and safety purposes

    James Dreben @jdreben.omg.lol
    What’s up with this… Is 1) The Hive really being used, and 2) using images here for generative AI? Pretty bad look if true
    To anyone thinking about joining BlueSky, especially artists: everything you post is used to train generative Al models. BlueSky uses Al to label content for moderation, and to do that they use a company called https://t hehive.ai/. If you look through their privacy policy, you will see that they all content sent to them to train models for all their services, which include generative Al for both text and images. It's a built in «feature" and cannot be turned off.

    Open sourcing Osprey was an adventure! @discord.com is now powered by the open source community version of Osprey. Read about how Osprey works and what makes a rules engine for fighting abuse powerful:

    discord.com/blog/osprey-...

    Osprey: Open Sourcing our Rule Engine
    Discord uses Osprey to quickly detect and remove new types of harm from putting our customers at risk. Now we’re open-sourcing this tool so others can do the same.

    Lessons for community labelers:

    Skywatch is a part of Bluesky's composable moderation, as a community-run labeler that people can subscribe to

    labels are a type of metadata about account/content. They exist on their own and as part of API responses or directly embedded in records themselves.
