The violence in Israel & Gaza has spread online 

The EU Commissioner has written to TikTok to request they "urgently step up" efforts to combat misinformation and respond "within the next 24 hours" how it is following European law.  

TikTok has an especially young audience - children and teens - and therefore has an even stronger obligation to remove violent content and terrorist propaganda.  

Meta and X have also been asked to comply with the EU Digital Services Act (DSA) law. This requires them to proactively remove illegal content and show they've taken measures to do so. 
 

Meta says they immediately spun up a situation room with Hand Arabic speakers to assist with content moderation. "Our teams are working around the clock to keep our platforms safe, take action on content that violates our policies or local law, and coordinate with third-party fact checkers in the region to limit the spread of misinformation." 
 

X says they've removed content and accounts - but says they haven't been informed of any illegal content they need to remove. 

Adobe has showcased its AI experiments 

Incredible advances --  

They showed how they could remove people from the background of video.  

They showed generative fill changing a man's shirt and giving him a tie. 

They showed removing reflections from photos.  

They also showed videos of being able to translate audio from one language into dozens, while keeping the sound of the original speaker's voice - effectively showing what it would be like if you were speaking another language.
