At at time when the very idea of content moderation is under assault, I wrote about an effort that gives me hope: a $27 million project to transform trust and safety with open-source tools in the same way that open source transformed cybersecurity www.platformer.news/roost-open-s...
Clint Smith felt that need acutely. Smith is the chief legal officer of Discord, which had been a Smyte customer before it shut down. Suddenly, the company had to build its own safety stack from scratch. “The things we needed to build had already been built by Snap, Reddit, and other companies,” Smith said. “But all of them were proprietary implementations done by those companies’ engineering teams.

Trust & Safety teams need robust tools to keep users and communities safe online, but building these tools is often costly, time consuming, and requires technical expertise that not all platforms have. This is particularly so for small platforms, non-profit platforms, and those with decentralized infrastructure. Today at the AI Action Summit in Paris, the […]
