Earlier this month, Facebook's algorithm flagged 21 posts from the Auschwitz Museum as going against its community standards — and now its parent company Meta is eating crow., the Poland-based memorial said that after Meta's content moderation algorithm moved some of its posts down in the feed over strange claims of violating community standards, the company has apologized, though not directly, for the error.
Indeed, as screenshots show, none of the posts in question had any such content, instead showing portraits of Auschwitz victims and short descriptions of their lives and identities prior to their murders at the hands of Nazis.While the flags have since been rescinded, many are sounding the alarm about how this kind of AI-powered system cuts humans out of the curation of important messages.
