THE AGE: How your childhood photos could help stop child exploitation

Description

Article in The Age reporting on launch of AiLECS lab's My Pictures Matter crowdsourcing campaign and citing research into countering child sexual abuse material (CSAM), including: use of 'benign' images of children to teach machine learning to differentiate non-CSAM content; and creating a research dataset with meaningful consent for use of images of children. (The My Pictures Matter campaign provides a simple way for people over the age of 18 to add their childhood photos to a research dataset to help fight child exploitation).
