Project Summary
This project leverages the expertise of medically qualified professionals to evaluate the quality and safety of health-related content on YouTube. The focus is on identifying videos that contradict established medical consensus or that may pose risks of user harm. The ratings provided will not directly influence individual video visibility or ranking but will instead serve as input to measure and improve YouTube’s systems for assessing content quality.
The program is scheduled to launch in October or November, following training and calibration sessions for raters.
Project Details

Evaluation Scope: Ratings will cover video metadata, visual content, and messaging, with emphasis on identifying misinformation and risk of harm.
Impact: Ratings will contribute to measuring and improving YouTube’s ability to surface high-quality, safe health information, but will not directly alter video ranking or visibility.
