About the volunteering opportunity
It is becoming increasingly common to come across frustrating statements from politicians and comments full of hate speech and misinformation on social media.
The AI tool "KI für Bunt" helps you with precise, fact-based answers to effectively counteract such statements.

What are 5-minute engagements?
With our 5-minute commitments, we want to inspire you to easily integrate commitment into your everyday life. They are independent of charitable organizations and enable you to make an individual commitment to people and nature in your neighbourhood.
Your Tasks
It works very simply: as soon as you discover a comment that doesn't quite correspond to reality, you copy it into the AI tool. The AI provides you with a polite, fact-based response. After you have checked it briefly, you can post it directly under the comment.
What's needed
For this volunteering opportunity, intermediate German skills are required.
Time required
Once
You can take as much or as little time as you like. The tool is ideal for in-between times - especially if a questionable post catches your eye again.
Location
This project is location independent.
