      What do you mean by this? I’d say you definitely could, although it would need an expert to sort through the candidates to find the ones with following up on.

      AI seems to have hit its limits, but this kind of stuff is what AI is great at.

        It’d be too expensive.

          Not at all - you’d have to train a model but then it could be run locally. You could even have something like SETI at Home, and run it on volunteers’ computers.

          I suppose some social media charges for access and it might not be a good idea to scrape for something like this (or at least admit it).

                  You’re just making up big numbers and ignoring what I’m saying.

                  Either it’s done centrally, in which case it’s feasible if they have funding, or it’s done SETI-style and users share the load (and could have data limits, etc).
