#Talk
In an era of rampant mis- and disinformation, reliable fact-checking has become essential to protect public discourse and democratic institutions. Following a reflection on contemporary forms of fake news, this talk explores the current state of AI-based multimodal fact-checking, highlighting recent advances and persistent challenges. Get to know DEFAME, our state-of-the-art fact-checking system that builds on our challenge-winning text-only predecessor, InFact, and now leads the field in multimodal claim verification. To conclude, let us discuss open problems such as ambiguity, media authenticity, and trust in AI-generated verdicts.
