Countering Hatred with AI
Event has passed
Hosted by Dangerous Speech Project
At the Dangerous Speech Project, they have conducted ground-breaking research on people – thousands of them – who respond constructively to online hatred.
So please join co-hosts Dave Willner of the Stanford Cyber Policy Center and Justin Hendrix of Tech Policy Press for an important webinar on AI and Counterspeech. They will explain the work we briefly described in our recent Tech Policy Press piece Can AI Save Democracy? No, It’s Not Funny Enough, and chart an effective way forward.
They will share what our research shows about how to build AI tools to do urgently needed counterspeech and/or help counterspeakers to do it. They will take a deep dive into understanding what online speakers want and need and what will work without backfiring.
They are delighted to feature Alena Helgeson who is a highly experienced counterspeaker, and Cathy Buerger and Maarten Sap, researchers who have been working keenly on the topic. They plan for this to be highly interactive so please come with your questions, and ideas.
