      That’s so stupid. You’re not allowed if you’re too dumb to be able to very clearly delineate from anti semitism and being against the state of Israel. Unless you’re not…Mike. The Jedi.

    I think Reddit does a relatively good job when it comes to moderation. Probably because they keep things local; even if a subreddit becomes problematic, it can stay in that group and not spread and disrupt to others. Compartmentalizing issues keeps things relatively clean. Global enforcement is problematic because it’s more of a cultural problem rather than a technical problem. But, you can keep things relatively manageable with community enforced moderation. One might say its not perfect, but I would argue that, like liberal democracies and republics, they’re never perfect but they get the job done. And that’s enough. Perfection is a fool’s errand.

    Edit: global enforcement on a platform may have a role to play when it seems a local group is clearly trying to antagonize and harm other groups. I believe that’s why Reddit took down some subreddits eventually.

    The solution is to pair tech with humans. Create clear rules that an AI can search for and use human moderators to confirm or deny the AI’s decisions. The moderator’s power comes from a democratic reputation graph where they gain and lose power based on the perceived fairness of their judgments by all users. and others are using GPT-3 to tackle the AI side, now we just need good governance models for the moderator side.

If one thing has become clear this season, finding the right talent for your team isn’t as easy as picking from a pile of resumes This week’s guest is Leah Solivan, the founder of Taskrabbit and now an early-stage investor who has seen that the power to change a homogenous startup exosystem comes from empowering diverse VCs to fund underrepresented founders who will hire the hidden tech talent.

From bootstrapping TaskRabbit on credit cards to scaling it into one of the defining companies of the gig economy, Leah learned firsthand that the hardest part of building a company isn’t the product, it’s selecting the right people to build it.

In this episode, Isabelle Johannessen and Leah unpack what it really takes to build diverse teams from day one and why most companies get it wrong by waiting too long. They also explore how the lack of diversity in venture capital directly shapes who gets funded, and ultimately, who gets hired.

Apply to Startup Battlefield: We are looking for early-stage companies that have an MVP. So nominate a founder (or yourself): techcrunch.com/apply. Be sure to say you heard about Startup Battlefield from the Build Mode podcast.

TechCrunch Disrupt: If you’re thinking about applying to Startup Battlefield, then October 13 to 15 in San Francisco, we’re back for TechCrunch Disrupt, where the Startup Battlefield 200 takes the stage. So if you want to cheer them on, or just network with 1000s of founders, VCs, and tech enthusiasts, then grab your tickets.
