Community-Specific AI: Building Solutions for Any Audience

With half of the world population online, and spending over 5 hours a day there, online communities are flourishing. It is now easier than ever for niche communities to form: gamers can find other players and form teams, dating adults can find better matches, students of particular subjects can find teachers and help each other. With faster networks images, audio, and video, are increasingly complementing text, creating a richer experience. However, as these communities grow wider and deeper, they can become a target for toxic behavior. Forums for underage users can be subverted with users attempting illicit solicitations and exploitation.
