Brazil has launched a new AI platform that scans the internet for hate speech and disinformation against the LGBTQ+ community 🇧🇷
“We created a platform with several artificial intelligence tools that continuously monitor pages, profiles, websites, and blogs,” said platform coordinator Jean Muksen during the launch.
The AI is called Aletheia and statements collected by the platform can be used to prosecute offenders under Brazil’s hate crime law, which in 2019 was expanded to include homophobia and transphobia, and can result in prison time for the convicted.
