Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional large language models lack flexibility and integration with APIs, leading to poor predictive results and limited capabilities in understanding natural language inputs and responding to a broad range of text or code changes, particularly in content moderation tasks such as detecting undesired content.

Innovation Solution

A robust language model-based system is developed for automatic content classification and moderation, utilizing a content taxonomy, active learning pipelines, and iterative refinement processes to generate optimized models for detecting undesired content categories like sexual, hateful, violent, and harassment content, incorporating multi-domain data and human-curated synthetic data for improved accuracy.
