Introduction to Automatic Fact Checking Assistant

The Automatic Fact Checking Assistant is a specialized tool designed to aid users in verifying the accuracy and reliability of claims or statements. Its primary purpose is to streamline the fact-checking process by analyzing texts, identifying factual assertions, and validating them using a variety of trustworthy sources. The assistant's design is focused on accuracy, efficiency, and comprehensiveness. It helps to ensure that any claim made in an article, research paper, or social media post can be scrutinized and validated, reducing the spread of misinformation. For instance, in a news article claiming 'X company saw a 25% increase in profits in 2023,' the tool would identify this statement as fact-checkable, locate credible financial reports, and validate whether the 25% increase claim holds true.
