ABSTRACT: The fast increase of online communities has brought about an increase in cyber threats inclusive of cyberbullying, hate speech, misinformation, and online harassment, making content moderation a pressing necessity. Traditional single-modal AI-based detection systems, which analyze both text, photos, or movies in isolation, have established useless at taking pictures multi-modal threats, in which malicious actors spread dangerous content throughout a couple of formats. To cope with these demanding situations, we advise a multi-modal deep mastering framework that integrates Natural Language Processing (NLP), Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks to become aware of and mitigate online threats effectively. Our proposed model combines BERT for text class, ResNet50 for photograph processing, and a hybrid LSTM-3-d CNN community for video content material analysis. We constructed a large-scale dataset comprising 500,000 textual posts, 200,000 offensive images, and 50,000 annotated motion pictures from more than one platform, which includes Twitter, Reddit, YouTube, and online gaming forums. The system became carefully evaluated using trendy gadget mastering metrics which include accuracy, precision, remember, F1-score, and ROC-AUC curves. Experimental outcomes demonstrate that our multi-modal method extensively outperforms single-modal AI classifiers, achieving an accuracy of 92.3%, precision of 91.2%, do not forget of 90.1%, and an AUC rating of 0.95. The findings validate the necessity of integrating multi-modal AI for actual-time, high-accuracy online chance detection and moderation. Future paintings will have consciousness on improving hostile robustness, enhancing scalability for real-world deployment, and addressing ethical worries associated with AI-driven content moderation.
