FAQ

What is an AI fact checker?

AI-assisted tools for verifying information. Input: text, articles, live streams or video. Output: extracted checkable claims with cross-source comparisons and ratings. Notable products include Full Fact AI and Factiverse; assistants like ChatGPT and Perplexity can also help with initial cross-checking.

Can it fully replace human fact-checkers?

No. AI is great at spotting suspicious claims fast, locating evidence and monitoring repeated spread, but nuanced context, implication and breaking events still need experienced checkers. Trusted verification bodies warn that AI itself hallucinates and its conclusions must be human-reviewed.

Which languages and formats are supported?

Full Fact AI mainly supports English, French and Arabic today, with more languages in development. Typical tools handle text, web pages, audio/video transcripts and social media, covering live streams, speeches and interviews.

Is it free?

Professional tools like Full Fact AI are subscription services for newsrooms, NGOs and government. Individuals can start with the web-search features of AI assistants and confirm against authoritative primary sources such as government sites, official media and professional bodies.

How do newsrooms and individuals use it?

Newsrooms use live verification during debates, monitoring of public figures, tracking misinformation spread and editorial support. Individuals use it to vet viral posts, spot scams and judge article credibility — always prioritizing official primary sources.

How can I trust an AI verification result?

Check three things: whether conclusions link to original sources rather than paraphrases, whether those sources are primary and authoritative (government, official media, professional bodies), and whether the tool separates facts from opinions. Cross-verify high-stakes claims with different tools and open the originals yourself.
