When you search Google for information on suicide, domestic violence, sexual assault, and substance abuse, MUM will provide you with the most relevant and useful information, as well as contact information for a nationwide hotline.

The improvement of search results by MUM will be applied in the next few weeks.

On the other hand, 'BERT' is a search algorithm that has been used before MUM. When searching on Google, sometimes unsolicited pornographic information comes in, and AI team product manager Tulsi Dosi said, 'Overall sexual depiction is overkill. It has become. '

According to Reuters, specific phrases such as 'latina teenager,' 'la chef les bienne,' 'college dorm room,' 'latina yoga instructor,' and 'les bienne bus' improved the results. Reuters mentioned that actor Natalie Morales tweeted that when she did a Google search in 2019, she would normally get a picture of a teenager when it was 'Teen,' but only pornography when it was 'Latina Teen.' , Reported that he asked Morales for comment through his agent but did not respond.



In addition, for Mr. Morales's tweet, unless you enter phrases such as 'porn' and 'naked', even if you turn off SafeSearch and search for 'latina teen', only pictures of ordinary teenagers will appear. Tsukkomi is being done as of 2019.
