Google aims to optimise safeguards for minors on its YouTube platform. — AFP Relaxnews
More than two billion people watch at least one YouTube video every month. Among them, numerous minors, who are exposed to content that may be disturbing or shocking for them. To ensure that they are adequately protected, Google is working on algorithms that will automatically modify age restrictions for certain videos. As for Internet users, they will soon have to provide proof of age by, for example, presenting identity papers.
YouTube is counting on artificial intelligence, and more particularly machine learning, to adjust access restrictions. Google's objective is to protect children from obscene and violent images, which are not appropriate for their age.
