The sheer volume of information produced every day makes it difficult to distinguish between real and fake news, but advances in natural language processing (NLP) present a possible solution.
In today’s digital era, the spread of information via social media and internet platforms has given people the power to access news from many different sources. The growth of fake news, meanwhile, is a drawback of this independence. Fake news is inaccurate information that has been purposefully spread to confuse the public and undermine confidence in reputable journalism. Maintaining an informed and united global community requires identifying and eliminating fake news.
