- Bodyguard filters out abusive comments on social media
- ‘We will not accept any violence’ says Roland Garros director
French Open organisers are to offer players at the tournament artificial intelligence-protection from social media abuse.
In the first initiative of its kind, the French Tennis Federation is using AI technology Bodyguard, which aims to filter out abusive comments on social media platforms like Instagram, Twitter and TikTok. Bodyguard can moderate comments in real time – with responses analysed in less than 200 milliseconds – and care will be taken about what is censored.
