> low-barrier of entry arbitrarily defined self-appointed moral policing 'AI'

So, a software developer?

Just kidding. Perhaps it would clear things up to know that "toxicity" classification is simply an introductory topic in natural language and machine learning. It is an interesting "problem" to try to solve precisely because of how ambiguous language gets. As far as I can tell, the article is mostly not concerned with the quality of the the classifier and is meant to be a proof of concept.

In any case, people have been coding and using such classifiers all over the internet since their inception. Believe me - this isn't accelerating that and the damage is likely mostly done. My advice? Self-host a web server.
