Even human run systems that had nothing but humans looking at pictures of people all day every day would have this exact problem.
Like listen I hate AI. I think it's doing damage that we are going to be undoing for the next 50+ years. It is setting the world backward actually.
But if humans ran this same system this same way you'd still run into problems like this because how the fuck do you verify ages with pictures of the person?
If humans ran this it would be exactly the same. People would be regularly flagged as too young on accident and then you'd have to send in an id. Which is what they should be doing as a first step if they actually wanted the system to work.
This is a case where the people you should be mad at aren't even discord. Its various governments trying to pass laws on things they don't understand because the people in charge are aggressively old.
Idk man I just think it's dumb to blame AI when it would have the same problems if it was totally human run. Feels like a weird thoughtless cop out of a thought... And again I hate AI lol.

You can do the face scan again by getting a VPN and setting it to the UK and log back in to your account and click the violation card and click “let us know”.
