Until you realize that the people who make the final decision on whether something the AI saw is indeed too far or extreme are the exact same people making the decision now and all we've succeeded in doing is creating a million dollar system that makes it look like they're trying to change.

    So what's you're proposed solution? Your directive to "fix that" was a bit light on details.

    This is a step in the right direction. The automated reviews will supplement, not replace, the reviewing triggered by manual reports you supported in your initial comment. I'd argue the pushback from police unions is a sign that it actually might lead to some change, given the reasoning the give in the article.
