[Sedo]

Hi All! :hi:

By request, we've decided to start a thread dedicated to Sedo. We're looking for invaluable insight into what domainers want and need out of our parking program (and marketplace, of course).

Questions, comments, suggestions, tips are welcome! We're hoping this will be a great discussion about what works at Sedo and what might not (please be constructive and respectful to others in your feedback) so that everyone involved can benefit and learn from it.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and ideas! Happy Holidays!

Always,
Keith
(on behalf of Sedo)

Your AI detection system is not very good. If it picks up something, before suspending a domain, let an actual human verify first

Yes, JB Lions, I'm seeing humor in these now after my second of the day. I'm expecting more for other names that are also most definitely not offensive to anyone other than Sedo and their low-end AI bot. It's all very Sedo. The intelligence is not only artificial, it is also very superficial (and not intelligent).

I just received the following email from SEDO.

What is the offensive word? Is it "Las Vegas" or "Jewelry".

AI really is the future...

I think that they are going to need to apply the brakes on this round of offenders, Brad. I've received two so far and both had the string "associates" in the name. I ass-ume that they are targeting a particular string there because I can't see anything else in the two names that would set off such a smart AI tool.

It would certainly help to have a real person manually review the domains that are being flagged by their AI system.

Any real person could see this is a legitimate domain.

I know everyone is tripping over themselves to launch "AI" systems, but this system is clearly not ready.

It's because of gas + jew.

 

[Mikeyboy]

Just got one for an unregistered domain
was adult related though

Only "AI" would find that connection.

It's pretty funny when an AI system is more inept than an average person.

Finding and eliminating all potentially offensive three-letter strings on an automated basis will nicely reduce Sedo's saleable inventory. Very intelligent.

You calling me AI?

SEDO needs a second AI system to monitor their first AI system that is flagging domains.

AI: Jewel is offensive word.
meanwhile: get this name for 4,969 USD!

At a time when GoDaddy could seriously use some good, healthy competition, it's nice to Sedo doing this on the cutting edge of AI.

Sedo's so-called AI (which is just a regular expression) really started to take off when the corona pandemic started and Sedo wanted to ban all kinds of virus, corona, covid, and pandemic-related domains from the marketplace.

I bet their "AI" is based on fax machine learning.
