Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg says AI will detect hate speech in 5-10 years — Quartz

Mark Zuckerberg said today (April 10) in his testimony before the US Congress that he could see AI taking a primary role in automatically detecting hate speech on Facebook in five to 10 years. The technology isn’t ready to deploy yet, the Facebook CEO says, because of the limitations to artificial intelligence. Hate speech detection remains a reactive process, and users need to flag it to the social media platform for it to be manually deleted, Zuckerberg said. It’s particularly difficult to find because it’s communicated in many different languages.
