More than 50 offending image and video ads were published across Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, or Threads, according to Meta’s ad library data. Some ran as recently as this week.
Their fancy new AI can go rogue, escape containment, and hack other companies. But surely, this advanced technology can’t be applied moderate Facebook ads!
The humans doing this job are going to be paid so bad and will have to review so much content that I don’t think they will perform any better than the current bots.

There is absolutely no excuse for such an immensely profitable company to not have a team of humans reviewing ads.

Edit so I’m not misunderstood: I’m not against human review in this (and other cases) but we have to have in mind that this kind of job SUCKS and content moderators on Facebook (contractors really) already had problems with PTSD (https://www.theguardian.com/media/2024/dec/18/kenya-facebook-moderators-sue-after-diagnoses-of-severe-ptsd).
Well if they can’t do it then Meta needs to find other lines of work or else their shit needs to be seized and shutdown.
