AI is everywhere these days, and on Discord, that caused several thousand people to lose access to the app for no good reason.In a thread on X, the gamer-centric chat app confirmed that about 8,000 accounts over the past two months had been banned after posting totally harmless images such as video game textures. This happened because Discord employs an AI moderation system that mistook the images for "harmful material." While Discord's thread said that "a member of our Trust & Safety team always reviews flagged content before any action is taken," thousands of people nonetheless lost access to their accounts since May because of this issue.
Thankfully, Discord also said it is in the process of restoring the lost accounts.
