The Google unit hired thousands of human moderators and put some of the best minds in artificial intelligence on the problem.[NEW YORK] YouTube has tried to keep violent and hateful videos off its service for years. The Google unit hired thousands of human moderators and put some of the best minds in artificial intelligence on the problem.

"Once content has been determined to be illegal, extremist or a violation of their terms of service, there is absolutely no reason why, within a relatively short period of time, this content can't be eliminated automatically at the point of upload," said Hany Farid, a computer science professor at the University of California at Berkeley's School of Information."We've had the technology to do this for years.

"There are so many ways to trick computers," said Rasty Turek, chief executive officer of Pex, a startup that builds a competing technology to YouTube's Content ID."It's whack-a-mole". "Live stream slows this down to a human level," he said. It's a problem YouTube, Facebook, Pex and other companies working in the space are struggling with, he added.
