It's not. It's a specific database of image hashes they are comparing against. Not AI, Not ML.

That's not... entirely clear actually. Well rather, what exactly the hash is based on. They call it "neural hash" which implies there's maybe some kind of embedding being used?

It's one thing to compute a simple hash. It's another entirely if they're using some type of locality sensitive hash since that very much has the possibility of false positives and would be a major invasion of privacy (which it already is).
