Powered by machine learning, the Documenting Hate News Index will track reported hate crimes across all 50 states, collecting data from February 2017 onward.

The initiative is a data-rich new arm of the Documenting Hate project which collects and verifies hate incidents reported by both individual contributors and by news organizations.

It is not a good idea to leave that to some corporate AI, unless you want to end up with a televisor in your room so that Viki can feed your thoughts into the new Skynet to police them.
