We're committed to developing and deploying AI technologies that are safe, transparent, and beneficial for our community.
Every AI feature we build follows these core safety principles to protect our users and community.
We clearly disclose when you're interacting with AI. No hidden bots, no deceptive practices.
Your data is yours. We never sell personal information and use data only to improve your experience.
We actively work to prevent bias in our AI systems and ensure equitable treatment for all users.
Robust safeguards prevent harmful content generation and protect vulnerable users.
Clear human oversight and escalation paths. AI assists, humans decide.
We constantly monitor, test, and improve our AI systems based on feedback and new research.
These principles guide every AI-powered feature we develop at City Buzz Local. They reflect our commitment to responsible innovation.
AI should augment human capabilities, not replace human judgment. Our tools empower community members and city staff.
Every AI feature must demonstrably improve the community experience, increase access to services, or enhance public safety.
Security and privacy protections are built into our AI systems from the ground up, not added as an afterthought.
We communicate clearly about what our AI can and cannot do, and we're transparent about our limitations.

Common questions about AI safety at City Buzz Local
All AI interactions at City Buzz Local are clearly labeled. Our Community Agent always introduces itself as an AI assistant, and you'll see an "AI" badge on all AI-generated responses.
The AI only accesses information you voluntarily provide during conversations. We don't use your conversations to train AI models without explicit consent. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
No. AI can provide recommendations and assistance, but all account decisions (suspensions, content removal, etc.) are made by human moderators. AI only flags content for review.
We conduct regular bias audits, use diverse training data, and have human reviewers check AI outputs. We also welcome community feedback to help us identify and address any biases.
Our team is here to help you understand how we use AI responsibly.
