Reddit, a privately owned company headquartered in the US, was founded in 2005 and employs approximately 2970 individuals. Its main product is social networking platforms, operating as a tier 1 media tech buyer. The platform enables users to submit, vote, and comment on content, stories, and discussions focused on diverse topics.
Reddit plans to implement Face ID for user verification, a move aimed at distinguishing real humans from AI agents and bots on its discussion platform. Earlier on March 22, CEO Steve Huffman detailed the company's exploration of Face ID-style verification and other biometric tools during a podcast, stating the goal is to confirm human presence while preserving anonymity. This initiative follows reports from March 22 that Reddit is testing a feature leveraging the iPhone's TrueDepth camera, which powers Face ID, to verify human users within its application. On the same day, Huffman announced Reddit's intent to "go heavy" on hiring new graduates, characterizing them as "AI native" and taking a contrarian view on AI's impact on entry-level jobs. These developments build on Huffman's earlier statement on March 21, made during a TBPN podcast interview, that Reddit is investigating new methods to differentiate human users from sophisticated bots to ensure platform integrity.
