According to the former X insider, the company has experimented with AI moderation. And Musk’s latest push into artificial intelligence technology through X.AI, a one-year old startup that’s developed its own large language model, could provide a valuable resource for the team of human moderators.

An AI system “can tell you in about roughly three seconds for each of those tweets, whether they’re in policy or out of policy, and by the way, they’re at the accuracy levels about 98% whereas with human moderators, no company has better accuracy level than like 65%,” the source said. “You kind of want to see at the same time in parallel what you can do with AI versus just humans and so I think they’re gonna see what that right balance is.”

I don’t believe that for one second. I’d believe it, if those numbers were reversed, but anyone who uses LLMs regularly, knows how easy it is to circumvent them.

EDIT: Added the paragraph right before the one I originally posted alone, that specifies that their “AI system” is an LLM.
