- In today's world, we are more connected than ever. The internet is an amazing way to connect to those close to us, however, it is also used to spread hateful messages to others.
- Our inspiration was taken from a surprisingly common issue among YouTubers and other people prominent on social media: That negative comments (even from anonymous strangers) hurts more than people realize. There have been cases of YouTubers developing mental illnesses like depression as a result of consistently receiving negative (and hateful) comments on the internet.
- We decided that this overlooked issue deserved to be brought to attention and that we could develop a solution not only for these individuals but the rest of us as well who often come across such disturbing comments while casually browsing through these social media
- Making the model and working with chrome extension (version 3) for the first time in 24 hours was extremely challenging
- It was difficult censoring comments on YouTube and Twitter as for both the social media the approach was different
- Integration of FastAPI and Chrome extension was extremely tedious
- Front end: HTML, CSS, Javascript to make pop-ups
- Programming Languages: Python (TensorFlow and Keras)
- Designing tools : Canva
- Version Control : Git and GitHub
- Backend: FastAPI and PostmanAPI for testing
