Summary

Digital media's pervasive influence necessitates effective global content moderation, as harmful content can traumatize users and incite violence. A balanced approach is required to support responsible speech while ensuring public safety and fair digital communication practices. The Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM) provides a framework to categorize harmful content consistently, aiding in the prevention of monetizing such content through advertising. However, the diversity of languages and cultural norms presents challenges in implementing a universal content moderation system. AI-powered tools offer promising solutions by allowing companies to adapt moderation standards regionally, utilizing techniques like embedding models, transfer learning, and human-in-the-loop systems to enhance accuracy and scalability. These AI methods enable platforms to manage content moderation effectively across diverse audiences, ensuring fairness and transparency.
