I was part of Google+ moderation team in 2015.

I learnt this is one of the major legal issue in social media which we could not find any reasonable technological path to address it.

I always wondered how Facebook is keeping this under control and if AI has made this problem approachable today?

AI is still not useful for detection.

Facebook makes 1 report to NCMEC for every 134 users, each year. Over 22 million reports. Each report could contain many pieces of CSAM.

The situation is dire.
