Australia to use artificial intelligence to fight hate on social media

Date:

Will be used by Australia artificial intelligence for isolate on the social networks of various professional leagues and of soccer players messages of hate, racist, misogynist or against the LGTBI collective.

This initiative was adopted after a agreement between football federation and Australian players association, on the one hand, and the company GoBubble, which uses artificial intelligence to hide hate messages on social networks, channel 7 News reported this Sunday.

The program, which monitors networks to prevent abusive, offensive or harmful messages and content, will be applied both men’s and women’s leagues.

“Football has the unique power to connect people of all kinds and we want the top leagues as included and safe as possible at all levels, both online and in real life, ”said Soccer Leagues Chief Executive Officer Danny Townsend.

“There is no room for online abuse in our games, and this initiative is part of our obligation to protect our players and our fans, ”Townswend added.

Last February, Australian rules football leagues temporarily tested GoBubble, hiding hate messages for both players and their fans.

In 2020, the player Josh Hope, 22, quit football because of anxiety over social media bullyingwhile Japanese professional Kisino Yengi was the victim of racist insults.

Josh Cavallo, the only player in the soccer league who has openly declared his homosexuality, is insulted for his sexual orientation in January.
