The alternative is Facebook with lies that go unchecked completely. This is actually an area where AI is not bad.

“Correcting” incorrect information with more incorrect information doesn’t improve the situation.

AI tools are inherently unreliable because of the randomness of their text generation.

And worse, Europe doesn’t build its own AIs. LLM fact checking would have to be done by Grok or Claude or some other product from big American tech. And there’s an obvious problem with a social media network trying to avoid American censorship and political bias but “fact checking” with a tool that has American censorship and political bias built into it.
