The platform had "quietly built a filter that would automatically delete specific words and emoji from users’ feeds." For Swift, that meant no more snake emoji. 。
Instagram has continued to work to make Instagram a cleaner place. Last year, users were gifted the ability to disable all comments. In June, Instagram introduced new filters that will automatically block "certain offensive comments" and spam. 。
And we come back to Swift. Instagram has been training its technology—a system named DeepText—with, of all things, Kanye West's rap lyrics. 。
"It also had trouble recognizing Kanye West lyrics," the Wired piece reads, referencing West's song Famous and the lyric: "I feel like me and Taylor still might have sex." 。
But at least the snake filter is perfect.。
