The motivation of individuals within these networks is not financial nor is it for sexual gratification this is purely for their amusement, for fun or to be popular online without fully understanding the consequences."
"Barrett said on Wednesday that AFP members were working with Microsoft to develop an artificial intelligence tool that could interpret emojis and gen Z and Alpha slang in encrypted communications and chat groups to identify sadistic online exploitation. This prototype aims to make it quicker for our teams to save children from harm much earlier, she said in an advance copy of her speech."
"The newly appointed chief outlined how the perpetrators, who are overwhelmingly from English-speaking backgrounds, were grooming victims and then forcing them to perform serious acts of violence on themselves, their siblings, others or their pets.

Australian federal police will develop an artificial intelligence tool with Microsoft to interpret emojis and Gen Z and Alpha slang in encrypted communications and chat groups to identify sadistic online exploitation. Law enforcement identified networks of young boys and men grooming vulnerable preteen and teenage girls and forcing them to perform violent acts on themselves, their siblings, others, or their pets. Perpetrators are overwhelmingly from English-speaking backgrounds and are motivated by anarchy, amusement, and online popularity rather than financial gain or sexual gratification. Perpetrators advance status through increasingly extreme content and sometimes trade victims. Federal police have identified 59 alleged offenders and made arrests, with alleged offenders aged between 17 and 20; the AI prototype aims to enable earlier rescues.
