Australian Police Launch AI to Combat 'Crimefluencers' Targeting Young Girls

The Australian Federal Police are developing an AI tool to combat the rise of crimefluencers exploiting young girls online, focusing on decoding Gen Z and Alpha slang and emojis.

• The Australian Federal Police, led by Commissioner Krissy Barrett, will announce the AI initiative during a speech at the National Press Club on Wednesday.
• This program aims to address the alarming trend of online exploitation linked to sadomasochism, specifically targeting vulnerable young girls on social media platforms.
• The AI tool will help law enforcement decode complex slang and emoji usage among Gen Z and Alpha to identify and disrupt criminal activities by crimefluencers.
