Instagram expands its anti-bullying tools with its new Feed Caption Warning feature

Instagram has expanded its anti-bullying features by implementing a ‘Comment Warning’ feature onto image captions.

Comment Warning was released in July this year, using AI to detect potentially offensive comments before they are posted and asking the user to reconsider publishing one.

Feed Caption Warning works largely in the same way, using AI technology to detect potentially offensive captions on image and video uploads, and delivering a notification warning that similar captions have previously been reported for bullying.

Instagram’s new Feed Caption Warning works similarly to July’s Comment Warning
