It's finally possible to moderate Zoom Chat! 💥 This video unlocks the secret of how to control Zoom Chat, deleting messages, blocking spam, and rewarding people who make good comments. You can make the messages appear directly on your video, transparently overlaid. It's just like Instagram Live or Twitch, brought to Zoom.
It makes big boring Zoom meetings fun.
This is all available for free on the website [ Ссылка ]. Full instructions are there.
Game Theory powers this system under the hood. To keep the chat digestable, only one message gets through every second. Which one? It's a lottery, where your number of tickets depends on how much the moderators have downvoted or upvoted your messages. If you've been too spammy, you don't have any tickets, and are auto-muted. If you've said great things, you're more likely to be heard whenever there's a lot of chatter. This aligns incentives so that people actually try to write good things.
This system was created and made available by Carnegie Mellon professor Po-Shen Loh, a mathematician, inventor, and educator. He designed it to provide the tech foundation of his new live online math courses, co-taught in lively fashion with brilliant high school teaching assistants, blending improvisational comedy and challenging math ([ Ссылка ]). After he saw how it completely blew up engagement in his online Zoom classes, he decided to make the system public for anyone else to use, to spice up any large meeting.
Thanks to Dean Dijour and Ian Smith for contributing to the engineering and design work.
