Fake news is prevalent on online news sites, and it is increasingly difficult to distinguish credible information from articles meant to spread misinformation. Often, this requires doing extensive research and cross-checking of sources, which takes an immense amount of time and effort.
Leveraging big data and today's massive computational power, we tailored our model to 10 million news articles from over 1000 different online news websites in order to classify news articles as completely fake, largely political, or credible.
After iterating on network design and training for multiple days, our model can now correctly categorize news articles 94% of the time, a result comparable to that of existing fact-checking watchdogs, but our fully-automated solution lets users know whether or not to trust articles with a single click.
Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
