Facebook says its AI failed to catch the New Zealand shooter video. The shooter livestreamed 17 minutes of the horrific attack -- which left 50 people dead -- on the site.

In a blog post late Wednesday evening the social media company's vice president of integrity, Guy Rosen, wrote that the shooter's video did not trigger Facebook's automatic detection systems because its artificial intelligence did not have enough training to recognize that type of video. The shooter livestreamed 17 minutes of the horrific attack -- which left 50 people dead -- on Facebook.Facebook said when the video was live, fewer than 200 people watched it.

"What challenged our approach was the proliferation of many different variants of the video, driven by the broad and diverse ways in which people shared it."Rosen also revealed that the way users flagged the video led to a delay in Facebook's reaction. The social network has in the past focused on reacting immediately to videos that show suicide.

Why is the media trying to decide what the American people look at .this is supposed to be a free country .

But they sure on top of the all the 'men are trash' posts 🙄

They also just announced a ban on Assault Rifles, something America never seems capable of doing and yet THIS is the perspective you want to run with...cnnfakenews

Sorry Facebook im too damned smart for yall bull poo. ive seen fight club, you did the same, you wanted that 'clip' to show, you wanted us to see the carnage Facebook, you know what you do, you sick elitists. You love death and evil thats why you 'didnt' catch it!!!

This kind of shit desensitizes people form the violence. It’s bad enough with games and movies. There needs to be laws preventing broadcasting. Then fine facebook large and see how fast they fix it.

They catch people posting boob videos in a matter of minutes but a 17 minute video of a massacre is lost... And fake news wonders why there's so many conspiracy theories.

if the NFL delays halftime shows by 5 minutes to censor, then why cant facebook delay their livestreams to monitor content? ▪ ▪

the end of live streaming, coming soon ▪ ▪

But AI can deem wonderful, kind channels that teach compassion and empathy predatory on YouTube and have their comments disabled. And YouTube doesn’t give them second chances to contest the result. SusanWojcicki

Shooter live streamed for 17 minutes because only police and bad guy have guns. Response time will never be fast enough by any police department.

Guns need to be given out to Good people!

Psychotic lefT!

Too busy censoring conservatives.

Possibly because facebook’s AI was set up to focus on non-white profiles as potential terrorists?

Facebook already removed 1.5 million copies of New Zealand attack videoFacebook says that it removed 1.5 million videos of the New Zealand attacks. It blocked 1.2 million of the videos at upload, meaning they would not have been seen by users, but did not say how many people had seen the remaining 300,000 videos. Too little too late. That is another name for Facebook. More proof you can't really stop people from breaking the rules. Here's the real news! These mosques had become radicalized! Egypt sent their own there to calm these mosques down. Keep defending radical Islam. This is how they take over our countries! REPORT THE REAL NEWS!

Facebook, YouTube and Twitter struggle to deal with New Zealand shooting videoHours after the New Zealand terrorist attack, copies of the gruesome video that appears to show the massacre continued to appear on Facebook, YouTube and Twitter, raising new questions about the platforms' ability to manage harmful content Amen. There is news and truth, and then there is glorification of violence. This crosses the line. Publishing tactics survivors use to avoid death is helping terrorists. Any would be terrorist would discover the videos on their own persistent determination. It is critical for the general public to see the horrors of what actually happens during a shooting like that Sharing this video does nothing but put families through more torment and give the terrorist more fame. No reason for that
