Rejoice, everyone who has ever opened a conversation with a stranger and found indecent photos there. It won't happen again, because Instagram is working to protect users from this kind of outrage.
The algorithm of the new function will be similar to the already existing filter of insults. Recall, it looks for potentially offensive comments and messages and hides them from the owner of the account. It's up to the user whether to turn it off or on.
And if you're worried that the search for nudes in other people's directories will be Instagram employees themselves, then we hasten to calm down - the company assured that the technology is absolutely confidential. And in general, why bother people when there are neural networks.
There is no more detailed information yet. We are waiting for the algorithm to be tested.
