This talk will have two main parts: 1) risks in AI systems; 2) AI for online safety. In the first part, I will talk about three risks of using AI: security, privacy, and discrimination. I will show that attacks that can be performed to exploit AI models and attack the systems that use them, that AI-based systems can be privacy-intrusive, and that AI-based systems may have biases that may lead to discriminate against particular types of users (e.g. based on gender/ethnicity). I will then outline our current research and projects on making AI safer. In the second part, I will talk about using AI to help people stay safe online. I will showcase our current research on using AI to study online language, particularly focusing on biased and toxic language and echo chambers, and to protect online privacy.
