AI for Better Social Media - With Researcher Dominik Bär
Research Film
Meet Dominik Bär, MCML junior member and PhD student at LMU exploring how AI can enhance the integrity of social media platforms.
Dominik's work goes beyond just detecting harmful content like hate speech and misinformation. He's developing AI that understands why content is posted and generates thoughtful, human-like responses - so-called counterspeech - in real-time.
Watch the video to learn how AI can shape a safer online environment. This video is part of the project KI Trans, an initiative in collaboration with TüftelLab and Uta Hauck-Thum from Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, focused on equipping teachers with the essential skills to navigate AI in schools. The project is funded by the Bundesministerium für Forschung, Technologie und Raumfahrt as part of DATIpilot.
