We announced major new partnerships this year. With Microsoft, we are piloting an AI-powered tool to detect terrorist content at scale. With Google Jigsaw, we are building Altitude to give platforms an elevated view of terrorist and violent extremist content on their sites. These demonstrate the power of cross-sector collaboration.
What worries us most looking ahead is the potential for generative AI to upend existing counterterrorism approaches. The technology could enable groups to automatically generate content that evades current detection methods. However, as our partnerships show, AI also presents opportunities to counter this threat.
For all of us, 2024 looks likely to test the mettle of our counterterrorism structures further still. But through continued partnerships, innovation and vigilance, I remain convinced we can weather whatever storms may come.
Yours sincerely,
Adam Hadley
Executive Director, Tech Against Terrorism
