Seems like Instagram will be no place for haters now! The app is now rolling out a fabulous feature using AI to wipe out all trolls and their nasty comments.

The photo-sharing application would remove comments that contained words and phrases it had specifically identified as offensive.

What is more, Instagram is switching the offensive comment filter on by default.

Users who post sexist and racist comments will now be automatically blocked and their vile comments will be deleted before they are seen by other users.

Instagram has been a platform where aggressive trolls find abode. Hence, the app has now taken strict measures to control users who target celebrities and vulnerable individuals with hateful comments.

“We believe that using machine learning to build tools to safeguard self-expression is an important step in fostering more inclusive, kinder communities,” said Kevin Systrom CEO & Co-founder, Instagram

Spam Comments to be Blocked

Instagram has also rolled out an AI spam-filtering system. The spam filter was secretly in order since last October, but it’s only being revealed this month.
The app is now using machine learning to recognize offensive or spam comments.

CWPK Legacy
Launched in 1967 internationally, ComputerWorld is the oldest tech magazine/media property in the world. In Pakistan, ComputerWorld was launched in 1995. Initially providing news to IT executives only, once CIO Pakistan, its sister brand from the same family, was launched and took over the enterprise reporting domain in Pakistan, CWPK has emerged as a holistic technology media platform reporting everything tech in the country. It remains the oldest continuous IT publishing brand in the country and in 2025 is set to turn 30 years old, which will be its biggest benchmark and a legacy it hopes to continue for years to come.
