    Yeah, it could actually work if it’s tuned properly. Certainly it could at least be an additional tool for moderators.

      If only used to flag, then passed to a moderation team for verification, it would work really well to police something that is almost impossible to police otherwise. That said, I’m sure they wont do that, they’ll just let it handle the moderation and ignore the false positives. Honestly, I’m still OK with that, I haven’t used voice chat in games in 20 years because it always devolves into a cesspool. So even bad moderation is better than what we have now.

          I’d guess that it is doing voice to text, then standard automatic moderation on the text, rather than a new AI that understand hateful sounds. Just a guess though. At this point, you could run the voice to text on local machines and pass that off to the server. Of course that means modders could disable the protection, but the vast majority of users wouldn’t be able to do that. It would also give the added benefit of transcriptions for players that can’t hear voice chat.
