After refining my thoughts, I think I see the problem:
1: The Banner AI must ban all transmissions of naughty Material X.
1a: Presumably, the Banner must also ban all transmissions of encrypted naughty Material X.
2: The people the Banner AI is trying to ban from sending naughty transmissions have an entire field of thought (knowledge of human values) the AI is not allowed to take into account: It is secret.
3: Presumably, the Banner AI has to allow some transmissions. It can’t just shut down all communications.
Edit: 4: The Banner AI needs a perfect success rate. High numbers like 97.25% recognition are not sufficient. I was previously presuming this without stating it, hence my edit.
I think fulfilling all of these criteria with sufficiently clever people is impossible or nearly so. If it is possible, it strikes me as highly difficult, unless I’m making a fundamental error in my understanding of encryption theory.
