Call of Duty's new chat moderation AI sees major success: 43% drop in toxicity

I'm pretty sure you can't get auto banned without a report from a human.
I think it just makes bans from reports much faster.
Iirc I was going back and forth with someone when this first came out and nothing happened.

In my experience, no there are no autobans without a report. In some cases you get a warning, in others you'll find yourself unable to communicate within minutes. This means you can't text chat or voice chat at all. The bans escalate in severity. I found myself banned for a couple of days from a report, and I have no idea what I said. A couple weeks later, I know what I said and was banned from communicating for two weeks. Obviously, some would say I shouldn't say what I said (a cuss worse directed at another player), and others disagree. What I've found in the past few months is it has created a running joke in most lobbies where everyone uses the ban as a threat. Say one thing they don't like and all will report you. Then it's up to the AI to determine if what you said was ban worthy. I'm not passing judgment, just explaining how it's working in real time.

As for me, I don't like living under a constant threat for saying a cuss word. From what I can tell you do have to direct that cuss word at another player and they have to follow up with a report. I do understand why others disagree. I have zero issues with bans for slurs and threats toward another player.

But people in your positions response to toxic behavior is to create a toxic society. Or, here is an idea, why don't we bring back dedicated servers so people can create their own servers with their own rules?

F**k yes and I am one million percent behind that notion. I'd love to have a dedicated server of Apex or any other online games we play. Like a vanilla GTA Online server (FiveM doesn't count). My mods and I would react much faster to cheaters and what we consider toxic behaviour.

I've been hollerin' that for a while now but unfortunately, so far, big game studios are bent on controlling every aspect of their games, even how and when we play it. It is wrong and they'll hopefully come to see that.

Gaming community is really weird lol.

All the obvious trash talkers are defending themselves really hard xD. Stepped on your toes much for being called out.

You know, Activision is the last bastion of the woke which is yet to fail. The rest of them, such as EA and Ubi-crap, have all too well understood "get woke go broke". EA censored the Dead Space game: Ok, perfect, I'm not buying it.
The day people will refuse to buy Call of Duty because of the woke sh!t will be the day the DEI completely dies.
As for Ubisoft: they can shove their progressive LGHD agenda where the sun doesn't shine, I refuse to play as a g.y black samurai because George Floyd and BLM.
YES, I'm a good ol' white male cishet, and I will NOT pay for inclusive gaming.

Cool, can we get this in every game? Starting with Dota 2, League and ofc Counter strike. Then move to Battlefield. People are just rude or crazy for no reasons. The things ive seen people say or do to others, holy cow. Id instantly put them in a mental hospital if I could. Its just not normal. Its not about winning or losing. Even in games where people win, they still go after each other. Even after their winning team members.

There is no logic, so yeah. Bring on the bans and AI to fix this.
