Abstract

The talk will give a general framework on gender-based violence, focusing on the relationship between AI and GBV. It will explore both the harmful impacts of Generative AI on GBV (non-consensual deepfakes and image-based abuse, AI reinforced bias and online harassment) and the role of AI in preventing and addressing GBV across multiple domains (detection and risk prediction, reporting and real-time monitoring, predictive analytics, bias mitigation).
