Applied AISome Instagram and Facebook users say Meta's AI moderation deleted their accounts; Meta says AI makes 13% fewer errors and finds 10% more violations than humans

Any product leaning on automated enforcement needs an explicit playbook for appeals and exception handling or you’ll burn your highest-engagement users at scale.
Applied AIEvals are the new PRD, Expedia’s AI chief tells VB Transform 2026
