Toxicity in the form of verbal hate and harassment has become normalized in online multiplayer video games, acting as a detrimental issue for both players and game development companies alike. This project involves developing an intervention system that could be embedded into video games to help combat and prevent this issue. The current demo of the project presents an early version of the intervention system with toxicity analysis within text and speech! Participants can speak into the microphone and test different phrases with the toxicity analyzer, and can interact with the various responses of the system.
