Medium GrooveSquid.com (original content) Medium Difficulty Summary
This paper addresses the issue of artificial intelligence-generated content (AIGC) spreading misinformation online, threatening societal, economic, and political stability. The authors propose a comprehensive debunking process that not only detects rumors but also provides explanatory generated content to refute their authenticity. The process involves an Expert-Citizen Collective Wisdom module for assessing credibility and a retrieval module for retrieving relevant information from a real-time updated database. By leveraging prompt engineering techniques, the authors integrate the results into a Large Language Model (LLM), achieving satisfactory performance while reducing computational costs.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
The AI-generated content problem is affecting democracy by spreading misinformation online. Current rumor detection efforts are limited to classification tasks and don’t address the issue effectively. This paper proposes a new approach that not only detects rumors but also explains why they’re false. The method involves an expert-citizen collective wisdom module for checking credibility and a retrieval system for finding relevant information. By using AI in a clever way, the authors make their model more efficient and cost-effective.
