Instagram is to warn users when it detects potentially bullying language in their captions for posts to the social network.

Axar.az reports citing Metro.co.uk that the Facebook-owned social media app said it will use artificial intelligence to spot possibly harmful language and give users the opportunity to reconsider it before sharing.

Earlier this year, a similar feature was introduced which warned users when their comments to other people’s posts contained language that could be considered offensive or bullying. When triggered, the feature shows users a message which says the caption looks similar to others that have been previously reported and gives them the option to edit it, learn more about why it has been flagged or share it anyway. Instagram has been among the social media platforms repeatedly criticized for failing to act quickly enough to remove abusive and other potentially dangerous content from the platform.
