Google's parent company is using AI to make the internet safer for LGBT people
In May 2017, the LGBT organization GLAAD posted a video on YouTube of actress Debra Messing receiving an award. In Messing's acceptance speech, she praised many Americans for supporting one another and reminisced about the show she starred in, NBC's CMCSA, 0.36% "Will and Grace," and its influence on telling the stories of members of the gay community. She also called on members of the Trump administration to "do right" by the LGBT community, by removing Steve Bannon (who has since left) from his post as President Donald Trump's chief strategist. She did not specify what her criticism of Bannon was. She also said in her speech that Ivanka Trump should work for "women's issues."
Using AI to Make the Internet Safer - IT Peer Network
Today's Web--characterized by social media and user-generated content--is a powerful, open medium that gives everyone a voice. Unfortunately, some use their voices to bully or harass other users. Social media platforms, online bulletin boards, blog sites, media companies, and anyone else who opens up posts to comments, struggle to identify and deter online harassment. So Intel has joined with a number of other organizations to create Hack Harassment--a collaborative effort to reduce the prevalence and severity of online harassment through increasing awareness and accountability, advancing anti-harassment technology solutions, and effecting change for individuals and communities. Online harassment is a large and growing problem.
