🚀 It's been a busy few weeks for the AI Ally Team, and we're thrilled to see our work gaining traction internationally!

🌍 A few weeks ago, Dr. Lucy Sparrow took to the stage at the CHI PLAY Conference in Finland. They shared insights into their work on the GAIM Project, which received an honourable mention and even got a shout-out from keynote speaker Constance Steinkuehler.

📣 Over at the Bandung International Conference for Cultural Studies, The AI Ally Project got a special mention in Prof. Natalya Lusty's keynote speech.

🎙️ Back home in Naarm, Dr Eduardo Oliveira was interviewed by Triple R. He spoke about how AI Moderation Tools like AI Ally can help combat toxicity, hate, and harassment in online spaces.

📊Survey Results Are In!

We are very proud to share with you some of the preliminary findings from our AI Ally Recruitment survey.

Thank you so much to all the wonderful people who filled out our survey. We appreciate your time and your bravery. 💜

Our survey has revealed that online harassment is, unfortunately, a daily reality for many people.

But here’s the good news: These insights are extremely helpful and have given us a good idea about what AI Ally should look like.

Our team are locked-in, working hard to bring this tool to life, and we can’t wait to show you what’s coming next!🌟

Happy Wear It Purple Day! 💜 Today, as we celebrate diversity and show our support for LGBTQIA+ youth, let’s also remember how important it is to create safe spaces online. Be kind in your comments, support people where you can, and if you see any cyberbullying or harmful content- report it. Together, we can make a positive impact and create a safer online world.

Doxing is a serious privacy violation where someone leaks your personal info online without consent. It's not just wrong - it's illegal in Australia.

It’s important to stay safe online and know what to do if you are doxed. Check out eSafety’s guide to Doxing here: https://www.esafety.gov.au/industry/tech-trends-and-challenges/doxing

Bumpin that.... survey before it ends! 💚

We are building an AI that can detect and combat online hate. But we need your help to make it happen.

If you are aged 14-25, identify as a woman, girl or gender-diverse individual and live in Australia- we want to hear from you. Your thoughts and experiences will directly shape the type of AI tool we create.

Our survey is closing at midnight and we’d love to get as many people as possible filling it out. It only takes 10-20 minutes. With your help, we can make the internet a better place ☀️ Link in bio!
