Yubo Launches SafeBlur to Automatically Block Harmful Content in User DMs

Published

on

Developed in response to user polling, SafeBlur further enhances trust and safety on the Gen Z social discovery app.

PARIS, Nov. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Yubo, a leading social discovery app for Gen Z with over 80 million users worldwide, is proud to announce the rollout of SafeBlur, an AI-powered tool that  automatically blocks harmful content in direct messages (DMs). By leveraging AI to develop a safety-by-design solution for content moderation in one-on-one interactions, Yubo is effectively addressing a longstanding challenge in user safety and privacy for social platforms industrywide.

Now available in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, and Australia, SafeBlur also features built-in user reporting capabilities to enable users to seamlessly escalate potential infractions of Yubo Community Guidelines for review and response by Yubo Safety Specialists, thereby driving support for overall content moderation and policy enforcement efforts.

Key features of SafeBlur include:

Automatic detection and blurring of potentially harmful content in DMsBuilt-in user-reporting flow to drive accountability and support enforcement of Yubo Community GuidelinesOpt-out function for users who prefer unfiltered communication

SafeBlur was developed to address the distinct challenges of moderating content in private interactions. With fewer observers than in group livestreams, DMs can be a higher-risk environment for harassment or other forms of inappropriate behavior. SafeBlur aims to close this gap by extending to private conservations the same level of scrutiny and protection that Yubo users encounter in group settings. In-depth polling conducted by Yubo in 2024 found that a majority of users across gender groups and ages would use a content moderation tool for DMs, if given the choice.

“SafeBlur’s application of AI to address the longstanding challenge of safeguarding private conversations is a testament to our commitment to online safety innovation,” said Yubo co-founder and CEO Sacha Laizmi. “SafeBlur was created in response to insights we gathered through rigorous data analysis and user feedback, reflecting our proactive approach to solving key challenges in trust and safety for social platforms. We’re proud to offer a solution that protects users and maintains the privacy they expect.”

SafeBlur stands apart from Yubo’s existing Muted Words feature by automatically blocking harmful content, without added user input. As an opt-out tool, SafeBlur gives users the ability to choose for themselves the level of content moderation they want for their private conversations.

As part of the SafeBlur rollout, Yubo will be conducting ongoing evaluations of the tool’s effectiveness and user satisfaction. The company plans to use this feedback to continually refine and improve the feature, ensuring it remains at the cutting edge of online safety technology. The SafeBlur algorithm is designed to be accurate across different languages, ensuring efficacy across the 140 countries where Yubo is active.

Published

By

A new book, “ChatGPT AI Book Writing Formula,” shows nonfiction authors how to leverage AI technology to make book writing faster and easier. Launched this week on Amazon, it quickly reached #1 status in two categories. Author Caryl Westmore distills the writing and self-publishing process into a 9-step formula, assisted by ChatGPT AI, paying special attention to prompt engineering as the key to success.

NEWPORT, Isle of Wight, Engaland, Nov. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bestselling author and book coach Caryl Westmore has launched a groundbreaking new book, “ChatGPT AI Book Writing Formula,” which has already achieved #1 status in two Amazon categories. The book shows authors how to streamline the writing process with AI technology while preserving their authentic voice.

“ChatGPT AI Book Writing Formula: 9 Steps for Coaches, Therapists, and Entrepreneurs to Write a Client-Attraction Book Faster and Easier with AI” teaches readers to “prompt, write, publish” a nonfiction book with AI tools like ChatGPT (and Claude) as coaches, collaborators, and brilliant assistants.

“I originally talked about ‘dancing’ with ChatGPT to overcome writer’s block in my book “Bust Writer’s Block Forever,” says Westmore. “But this book takes AI collaboration to a whole new level.”

“AI streamlines book writing,” says Westmore. “Writers must, however, humanize ‘AI-speak’ with personal anecdotes, case studies, and emotions.”

Prompt Engineering (the art of interacting with ChatGPT AI) can be challenging at first. Westmore includes a free bonus PDF, “Time-Saving Prompts for Authors,” and plans a follow-up course, “Author Accelerator: Master AI-Powered Prompts for Writing, Editing, and Publishing Your Book in 21 days.”

View Artificial Intelligence as either fearful or fascinating. This book reassures readers that it can be both fun and useful in assisting with the “hard-lifting” when it comes to self-publishing.

“ChatGPT AI Book Writing Formula” is currently available on Amazon at a special launch price of $0.99. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DL4L79PQ.

WOLFBOX Draws Awareness on the Important Role of Dash Cams in Ensuring Driver Safety and Preventing Insurance Fraud

Published

on

By

DALLAS, Nov. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Auto insurance fraud is rapidly growing with fraudsters orchestrating staged accidents, exaggerated injury claims, and even deliberate collisions to take advantage of insurance payouts. Fraudulent claims not only cost insurers billions of dollars every year, but also result in increased premiums and severe financial consequences for innocent victims. Proving innocence in these cases is difficult, often requiring the assistance of an insurance fraud lawyer, and can lead to lengthy legal battles and payouts. Thus, WOLFBOX wants to make drivers aware of how to ensure their safety and protect themselves from insurance fraud.

What is insurance fraud? It refers to the illegal act of deceiving an insurance company for financial gain. Recently, a video of an alleged car insurance fraud in New York City that went viral on TikTok captured how these fraudsters come out of nowhere and stage an accident. Luckily for the victim in this video, her car’s dash cam recorded the entire incident. This video has raised awareness around the importance of owning a dash cam to prevent insurance scams.

With such incidents on the rise, dash cams have emerged as the most effective tools for preventing and combating car insurance fraud. With their ability to continuously record the road and driver interactions, these devices provide an unbiased, reliable account of what actually happens during an incident. Dash cams can be essential for drivers who need to know how to report insurance fraud or are seeking legal recourse.

From round-the-clock monitoring to providing objective evidence, a dash cam serves as a handy device for drivers to keep themselves and their vehicles safe. One of the primary advantages of a dash cam is its ability to record real-time video footage of the road and surroundings. In the event of an accident or dispute, this footage serves as irrefutable evidence, helping to determine fault and protect drivers from fraudulent claims. Dash cam footage is crucial when settling disputes in courts or with insurance companies, especially in car insurance fraud examples.

Apart from 24/7 surveillance, some of the recent dash cams also offer extremely high resolution video even in dark or poorly lit conditions. For instance, WOLFBOX’s 3-channel X5 dash cam is equipped with the latest best-in-class IMX 678 sensor that captures license plates and other critical details day or night with enhanced image quality and color reproduction. With its three-channel monitoring system, the dash cam covers the vehicle’s front, rear and interior with 4K and 2.5K clarity, significantly reducing blind spots and improving overall driving safety.

Dash cams continue to record even when the vehicle is parked.This is especially useful for capturing footage of hit-and-run incidents or vandalism cases. The X5 comes equipped with two parking modes, including time-lapse monitoring and collision detection. These modes ensure continuous surveillance, offering peace of mind whether the vehicle is parked or in motion.

Many advanced dash cams such as the X5 are equipped with GPS functionality that logs vehicle’s speed, location, and route. This data can also prove to be critical in disputes where the other party falsely claims speeding or reckless driving.

Dash cams also help promote responsible driving. With a dash cam installed, drivers tend to become more cautious and aware of their driving habits, knowing that their behavior is being recorded. This leads to a culture of safer and more responsible driving on the road.

As insurance fraud becomes more sophisticated, it’s crucial for drivers to take proactive measures to protect themselves and their vehicles. Investing in a dash cam is a simple yet highly effective way to do just that.
