How does this work? Kagi pays for hordes of reviewers? Do the reviewers use state of the art tools to assist in confirming slop, or is this another case of outsourcing moderation to sweat shops in poor countries? How does this scale?
> Kagi pays for hordes of reviewers? Is this another case of outsourcing moderation to sweat shops in poor countries?
No, we're simply not paying for review of content at the moment, nor is it planned.
We'll scale human review as needed with long time kagi users in our discord we already trust
> Do the reviewers use state of the art tools to assist in confirming slop
Mostly this, yes.
For images/videos/sound, diffusion and GANs leave visible artifacts. There's a bit of issues with edge cases like high resolution images that have been JPEG compressed to hell, but even with those the framing of AI images tends to be pretty consistent.

By doing rollups to the source. Going after domains / youtube channels / etc.
Mixed with automation. We're aiming to have a bias towards false negatives -- eg. it's less harmful to let slop through than to mistakenly label real content.
May I ask how you plan to deal with YouTube auto-dubbing videos into crappy AI slop?
I wanted to watch a video and was taken aback by the abysmal ai generated voice. Only afterwards I realized YouTube had autogenerated the translated audio track. Destroyed the experience. And kills YouTube for me.
If Kagi wants to avoid serving auto-dubbed content for language-specific intent, Kagi should handle that on the indexing side, no AI-detection required.
