In its ongoing efforts to fight online bullying,The Relic Of My Sister Next Door Instagram will now warn users when their photo captions "may be considered offensive," essentially offering them a chance to carefully reword whatever it was they were about to put into the universe.
It's similar to a comments feature the social media platform rolled out earlier in 2019. It says the results "have been promising, and we’ve found that these types of nudges can encourage people to reconsider their words when given a chance."
The process will rely on AI, according to Instagram, alerting the user that their caption "is similar to those reported for bullying." In theory, the user could then rethink their language and post a less offensive caption.
Instagram confirmed to Mashable that even if they get a warning about a potentially offensive caption, they can still post it. But if it violates the platform's terms of service, the post would be removed.
The company also confirmed its AI is learning ways in which people try to circumvent it, including using punctuation in words (like "b.a.d." instead of "bad").
