From the recent flow of information coming through incidences of cyberbullying and other related harassments in North America particularly in the United States, this forms a very real challenge that has extensive social and psychological effects. AI has turned out to be an essential element in eliminating the mentioned problems by identifying, discouraging and reducing negative actions online. The following paper is an abstract on the possible use of AI and especially NLP, sentiment analysis as well as other AI techniques to detect pattern associated with cyber bullying. These technologies allow the monitoring of, and the immediate reporting of abuse in real-time spanning the existing social networking sites, forums, and other channels of communication. In addition, new forms of AI-based interventions are being designed to assist victims and effectively raise the levels of users’ digital morality. AI chatbots, for instance, can provide an instant counseling service and report cases to the respective authorities always. Integration of AI also enables these systems to learn, which means that the algorithms will use new patterns of language and behavior linked to cyber harassment to improve detection of such people. However, there are growths hampering the application of AI in this domain they are; privacy, false positive rate elimination, and the appearance of bias from the algorithmic decisions made. This abstract highlight the necessity of further research and cooperation of technology corporations, governments and schools to improve the AI used in protection against cyberbullying and online harassment in the United States of America; AI has the potential to become one of the tools to minimize the rate of cyberbullying and online harassment but needs to be developed with the high consideration of ethical concerns and backed up by appropriate laws.
