The Twitter/#Ruby Files Edition. The Ones You Haven't Heard About.

Ben Stein and co-host Judah Friedman are joined by Kris Ruby of Ruby Media Group and Ben Boychuk of American Greatness to discuss how Twitter used machine learning and artificial intelligence to flag potential "disinformation." Ruby shared her findings, including screenshots of keywords Twitter would flag for moderation. Why would Twitter care whether users are sharing American flag emojis? We explore that question and more—including the First Amendment implications of social media companies' collusion with the federal government. Sorry, we had technical difficulties and couldn't live stream this episode.
