PIANO – Personalized Interventions Against Online Toxicity
28 Settembre 2023 – 27 Settembre 2025
PIANO aims to address the problem of toxic and hateful speech in online environments. The spread of such toxic behavior hinders healthy conversations, promotes radicalization, and can even lead to offline harm. Current moderation interventions have not been effective in reducing toxicity, as they use a “one-size-fits-all” approach. PIANO proposes a novel approach by designing personalized moderation interventions based on user personality traits. The project employs a cross-disciplinary approach, combining psychology, machine learning, and artificial intelligence techniques. The system employs methods to infer user personality traits from their online activity and uses this information to craft tailored text-based interventions. The project will be validated through psychological surveys and experimental campaigns on platforms such as Reddit, Twitter, and Il Sole 24 Ore. PIANO also aims to address ethical, privacy, and legal concerns associated with online moderation. By adopting a user-centered approach and leveraging psychology and data analytics, PIANO seeks to advance the theory and practice of online moderation.
