  • 💂♀️ #MRGS25 CONFIRMED SESSION: Beyond Detection: Scaling Age Assurance with Context-Aware Filtering Models 🎤 Speaker: - Katerina Kolomeytseva, ML Engineer, Bumble Inc. Accurately moderating age-related content is essential for platform safety—but AI models often misclassify casual age mentions, overwhelming moderation queues. This session presents a two-layered system deployed at a large social platform with millions monthly active users. The first multilingual classifier flags potential underage content; a second, context-aware filter analyzes behavior patterns to refine decisions. This approach reduced false positives, accelerated sanctions, and improved moderation efficiency. Attendees will learn how to build scalable workflows, leverage behavioral signals for precise filtering, and elevate compliance—all while boosting user trust and operational effectiveness. 🔎 Join Bumble and hundreds of industry leaders from the Marketplace Risk Global Summit and be part of this incredible experience! 👉🏼 Register now! https://lnkd.in/eqVY9h4H
