In this project, Holis explored how communities and legal experts might use big data and AI to deter human rights abuses and increase convictions.
We collaborated with Dr John Stevens and Iulia Ionescu from the Royal College of Art (RCA) and Roland Harwood from Liminal to design and deliver this workshop for RCA Global Innovation Design students. To make the workshop real and up-to-date, we had the support of special advisors: Professor Yvonne MacDermott-Rees (Professor of Law, War Crimes at Swansea University), Jeff Deutch (Syrian Archive) and Dr David Boyle (AI / ML technology at Imperial College.
By designing and running a bespoke workshop for the RCA students and involving the right experts at the right time, Holis produced exciting projects with the students in a very short time. One of these outcomes was J{AI}NE DOE.
J{AI}NE DOE is a tool to enhance law enforcement’s ability to identify and prosecute online sex traffickers. This tool seeks to make the online environment more hostile for traffickers and serve as a deterrence by supporting cyber operations. It achieves this by simplifying, automating, and scaling the use of AI victim profiles to interact with online sex traffickers.
