How Artificial Intelligence (A.I) Can Help to Combat Fake News

Recent technological advancements like the internet have vastly improved the speed and the mode of communication, but they have given rise to a new problem, "fake news." Fake news is a false story or information peddled to push a narrative or the cause of the source. Every internet user, at some point, has come across fake news. The stories are usually written to sensationalize or muddle the truth and are spread faster than the truth, according to a 2018 research. Essentially, the chances of an internet user receiving accurate information are relatively small. As a result, most internet users are susceptible to consuming twisted or falsified materials that fit a narrative.
