"The tech company said Wednesday it was releasing a feature that automatically detects "mean" replies on its service and prompts people to review the replies before sending them.

"Want to review this before Tweeting?" the prompt asks in a sample provided by the San Francisco-based company.

Twitter users will have three options in response: tweet as is, edit or delete.

In tests, Twitter found that if prompted, 34% of people revised their initial reply or did not reply at all. After being prompted once, people composed on average 11% fewer offensive replies in the future, according to the company."

edit: you know what, i'll hope for the best with this. good points brought up in this thread. still prefer real moderation instead of automated but i digress

ktt should do the same thing I think

ain't no f***ing way.

i'm on board

I WILL SUBMIT MY POSTS EVEN FASTER UPON A “REVIEW”

how have you not had a mute yet

For the amount of POCs and LGBTQIA+ that be getting death threats on Twitter, I aint mad at this.

can't be mad at this if it worked over 1/10 times tbh

Doubt

damn this gimmick sucks d***

Is this really gonna work though? This seems like a lazy ass bandaid to actual moderation.

this is kinda like promoting mindfulness isn't it?

Should do that here. Would help me relax before coming at someones throat

yeah maybe people will take a second and think before they say mean things

I don't think it's a bad thing

yeah i do suck d*** i'll suck it better than your girl does too now keep moving

This actually smart

Too many pussies thinkin they can say what they want online this s*** look good

powerful post

soon they gone do the same thing with thoughts

WOULD YOU LIKE TO THINK THAT

stay woke

AT A CERTAIN POINT YOU CANT GIVE PEOPLE CONSEQUENCES FOR EXPRESSION THAT YOU DEEM DISAGREEABLE

IT GETS VERY MUDDY AFTER THIS

Absolutely, it’s really a good thing.

guess im just hesitant with the AI stuff instead of real moderation, only time will tell i suppose. if it does help overall i cant be mad yeah
