A mix of genuine, spam-like, and borderline comments works best. --- ## **Moderating with AI** Enable AI-assisted comment moderation and run it against your test comments. Compare its flags against your own judgment: where do you agree, and where would you have moderated differently? 📸 **Screenshot placeholder:** the comment moderation queue showing AI-generated flags alongside a set of test comments. --- ## **Classifying content** Use AI classification on a small set of posts or comments to sort them by topic or type. Check a few classifications by hand to see how consistently the tool applies its own categories. 💡 **Why this matters for you:** Moderation and classification decisions affect what other people see. Practicing on low-stakes test content now means you will already know where AI is reliable and where you need to double-check before turning it loose on your live site. **What you’ll have when you’re done:** a moderated and classified set of test comments, with notes on any calls you overrode and why. --- ## **✅ Check your understanding** 1. Where did AI moderation disagree with your own judgment, and which of you was right? 2. What would make you trust AI classification enough to stop spot-checking it by hand?
