Awesome concept! An interesting use of AI. Do you think it would it be possible to recognize a news story as fake news? The dataskeptic.com podcast have been doing a series recently on fake news.
- jedwhite 8y agoThanks! If you watch the "Show Me Everything" raw feed for a while, it puts a "flag label" on different types of bad content - including clickbait, fake news, hate speech, extremism and state news and propaganda. A lot of those stories get stripped out when the filters are on. But the "crap detection" filter does flag those stories in the raw feed in real-time too. It's still learning but it's already decent at detecting this sort of content. I was thinking of adding a "fake news" view (or "Crap detector view") as it's interesting to see the techniques the people who propagate that stuff use!
