Emerging Technologies
Advanced Generative AI for Nuance
Next-generation generative AI models are capable of understanding highly nuanced language, sarcasm, and complex contextual cues, leading to more accurate content moderation and sentiment analysis.
Decentralized Social Media Protocols
The rise of decentralized social media platforms and protocols (e.g., ActivityPub, Bluesky's AT Protocol) could shift content moderation responsibilities and data ownership models.
Emotion AI and Psychometric Analysis
Integrating AI capable of detecting emotions and psychological states from text or multimedia content can provide deeper insights into audience sentiment beyond basic positive/negative classifications.
Impactful Policy Frameworks
Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) 1998 (updates likely)
COPPA imposes requirements on operators of websites or online services directed to children under 13 years of age, or who knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Requires companies to implement stricter data collection and moderation practices for content involving minors, potentially affecting platforms with young user bases.
American Innovation and Choice Online Act (Proposed, 2022)
This proposed legislation aims to prevent dominant online platforms from unfairly preferencing their own products and services, potentially impacting how social media platforms operate and integrate third-party tools.
Could influence API access and data sharing agreements between social media platforms and moderation services like Respondology, potentially creating new opportunities or restrictions.
California Age-Appropriate Design Code Act (CAADCA) 2022
Requires online services likely to be accessed by children under 18 to configure all default privacy settings to a high level of privacy and to consider the best interests of children.
Mandates increased responsibility for platforms and moderation tools to protect younger users, requiring Respondology to enhance its age-gated content identification and parental control features for clients.
