So excited to embark on this journey with @_mainack! Let’s make short video platforms a safer space for emerging adults. Many thanks also go to @Smirity, who’s been leading the research that motivates this proposal and who co-wrote the proposal with us!.

Thanks @GoogleAI for awarding me and @yixinzouu a Google Academic Research Award. We will work to design tech for defending emerging adults from scams on platforms like TikTok where content sometimes gets a bit undeserved trust. Thanks for the support @maxplanckpress, @IITKgp.
