The Government Has an AI Designed to Identify Extremist Material Online
The government has made a big deal about identifying extremist material online, and seems to be involved in an uphill battle to get online communities to take an interest. Now it's taking matters into its own hands, with an AI designed to identify Islamic State propaganda with a 99.995 per cent success rate.
The tech uses machine learning and actually analyses the video content during the upload process, before it even gets published online. That way it can be dealt with immediately, rather than sitting around for 36 hours while the social networks sit on their hands pretending it's not there. It's also a huge improvement on the two hour window the government demanded last year, with the Home office reporting that the bot was able to detect 94 per cent of IS material with 99.995 per cent accuracy.

Described as "supernatural" in its power, "Minion Mangler(tm)" also eradicates all Catholic, Anglican, Methodist, Pentecostal, Judaic, Orthodox, Amish, and Quaker propaganda and even includes anything to do so-called Native-American superstitions and Buddhism, Shinto and Hinduism including all references to Xherg-jaman, the sloth-headed god of the Ymini tribe of central Amazonia.

Note how Godliness wipes away all horror!
