As many of you might be aware, Omegle has recently ceased operations. A significant challenge the platform faced was managing content moderation and curbing abuse.
Before developing my application, I dedicated considerable time to contemplating potential solutions for these pervasive issues. Ultimately, I turned to artificial intelligence as the cornerstone of my strategy.
In brief, my approach to resolving the moderation dilemma involved the utilization of in-browser Large Language Models (LLMs) and Conversational APIs. I have elaborated on this methodology in a paper about LLMs and Conversational APIs, which is accessible here: Towards Conversational APIs.
Furthermore, I integrated a client-side, computer-vision NSFW detection library to scrutinize video chats in real-time, ensuring a safer and more secure environment for users.
The core belief driving this project is that, thanks to recent AI advancements, it's possible to create a safe, anonymous platform akin to Omegle that effectively prevents abuse and deters predators.
I officially launched the website last week. While it's still in its infancy and the user base is growing, I am eager to see the community's feedback and the potential impact it might have.
