Top tennis organizations have implemented an AI-driven initiative called Threat Matrix to combat cyberbullying. This program has identified around 12,000 abusive comments directed at players and officials, leading to the reporting of 15 individuals to authorities. The initiative, which operates in 39 languages, aims to enhance the safety and mental well-being of athletes by monitoring social media platforms for abusive content.
Threat Matrix has monitored nearly 2.5 million posts, verifying a significant number as abusive and taking action against offenders. The initiative highlights the role of 'angry gamblers' as a major source of abuse, with a notable increase during Grand Slam events. The tennis bodies emphasize the need for collective efforts from various stakeholders to effectively address online harassment.
