Gmail is Now Blocking 100 Million Extra Spam Messages Every Day With AI (theverge.com)

Google has recruited its in-house machine learning framework, TensorFlow, to help train additional spam filters for Gmail users. With the new filters in place as of last month, the company claims Gmail is now blocking an extra 100 million spam messages every day. From a report: In the context of Gmail's 1 billion-plus users, this isn't necessarily a huge gain -- it works out as one extra blocked spam email per 10 users -- but Google says Gmail already blocks 99.99 percent of spam, so working out what constitutes that last sliver of a percentage is hard.

Props when deserved

Use gmail for work for decade+, spam has certainly never been a problem.

Although, it does seem to be a bit aggressive sometimes.
