Case study on scaling hybrid moderation pipelines, blending rules, MLLLM classifiers for gray-area chats, and routing to reviewer queues. Andrei will provide end-to-end workflows with policy-aligned labeling, imbalance-aware evaluation beyond accuracy, precise thresholding, and moderator feedback loops to detect drift and adapt to shifting abuse tactics in production.
