Funded Activity Summary

Minimising Human Efforts to Fight Fake News and Restore the Public Trust. Our modern society is struggling with an unprecedented amount of online fake news, which is recently driven by misused artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. This project aims to build the first real-time system integrating algorithmic models and human validators to counter such falsehoods, especially those AI-fabricated false stories. This project expects to deliver a series of cost-effective and streaming methods empowering a Web-based observatory dashboard of fake news propagation. This achieves significant benefits for media organisations, governments, the public, and academia via timely alerts, data-journalism reports, and novel data visualisations of social media landscape to distinguish between legitimate and deceptive contents.
