Automating validation is a good idea - as I told you probably could use some kind of facts graph to make it.

I sent email today. Let's keep in touch

Nice idea! A couple of months ago I read a book from Stanford professor about design thinking method approaching to live. Almost the same - to understand would you love this work or not best to speak with people who already working on this position.

I'm sure this is the right idea to invite people to volunteer for checking information, but this creates needs to build some kind of rating or double-checking system for volunteers too (something like Wikipedia authors/moderation system).

About fact-checking. I think this feature contains two big parts: 1) extract a fact from the text 2) to check a fact

For 1s task on the basic level and numeric data, it seems not so difficult with NLP (just tried to create a tree and it looks pretty simple: https://nbviewer.jupyter.org/github/SerafimPikalov/Sandbox/b...)

For 2nd task probably needs to create some kind of "fact-tree" (something like Word population>USA population>target audience for service potential audience...)

I love your idea! Thank you. Keep going!

Just yesterday I had a talk with my friend with the PR industry. We have been discussing how to select the best information sources and became to the idea that the future will be some kind of rating system based on pair experts-field of knowledge. After that, I start to think about creating some kind of automatic system for fact-checking facts in articles at least numerous ones (like based on world population and companies valuation and other public data). Do you have anything like this in your backlog?
