Definition

Content moderation is the set of policies and technical controls platforms use to detect, block, or remove prohibited user content and model outputs — including prompt filtering and output scanning for generative AI Spaces/apps.

Key Points

  • Policy bans without platform-enforced filters create enforcement gaps (developer-opt-in only)

  • Aggregate statistics and policy recommendations are the journalistic framing for sensitive misuse research

  • Distinct from cybersecurity incidents (intrusion) though both affect platform trust
