AI Can Solve Fake News Problems?


There are a lot of lies that go through news or in stories in general and there aren’t many of us who can detect them. There are "fact-checkers and journalists who try their best" to find fake information however, there just too many lies. Facebook Journalism Project funded $200,000 out of the $1.2 million to help for the development of virtual fact-checking. The AI algorithm that was invented so that it would follow strict rules and compare information that is known as the truth. Chengkai Li, a scientist at the University of Texas and lead researcher of ClaimBuster, first started out with an algorithm to follow a set of rules. Later, they taught code to the computer to compare any type of statement to any factual data. They still have not completely finished the project but it would nice to decipher information as the truth or just fake news.
