AI-102 Plan and manage an Azure AI solution Practice Question
You need to implement content moderation for a social media platform using Azure AI Content Safety. The solution must block hate speech and self-harm content while allowing mild profanity. Which configuration should you use?
⚠ Common exam trap
Candidates often assume disabling a category (like profanity) is the only way to allow it, but Azure AI Content Safety uses severity thresholds to allow mild content while blocking severe content, so disabling the category removes all control over that content type.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Enable hate speech and self-harm with severity threshold 4; enable profanity with severity threshold 6
Azure AI Content Safety allows you to set severity thresholds per category (0-6). By enabling hate speech and self-harm with a threshold of 4, you block content at severity level 4 or higher (e.g., severe hate speech and self-harm), while enabling profanity with a threshold of 6 means only the most extreme profanity (level 6) is blocked, allowing mild profanity through. This matches the requirement to block hate speech and self-harm but allow mild profanity.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Enable all categories with severity threshold 0 (block all)
Why it's wrong here
Blocking all profanity violates allowing mild profanity.
- ✗
Enable all categories with severity threshold 2
Why it's wrong here
This blocks moderate and severe content across all categories, including mild profanity.
- ✗
Enable hate speech and self-harm categories; disable profanity
Why it's wrong here
Disabling hate speech fails the requirement to block hate speech.
- ✓
Enable hate speech and self-harm with severity threshold 4; enable profanity with severity threshold 6
Why this is correct
Threshold 4 blocks high-severity hate/self-harm; threshold 6 allows mild profanity.
