This is a Plain English Papers summary of a research paper called Fact-Checkers Demand Transparent AI: Study Shows Need for Explainable Automated Fact-Checking Systems. If you like these kinds of analysis, you should join AImodels.fyi or follow us on Twitter.

Overview

  • Research examines fact-checkers' requirements for explainable AI fact-checking systems
  • Study conducted through interviews with 20 professional fact-checkers
  • Identified key needs: transparency, source verification, and step-by-step reasoning
  • Fact-checkers want AI systems that show their work, not just conclusions
  • Found significant gaps between current AI capabilities and fact-checker needs

Plain English Explanation

Professional fact-checkers need AI systems that can explain themselves clearly. Just like a student showing their work on a math problem, fact-checkers want AI to demonstrate how it reached its conclusions.

The researchers talked to 20 fact-checkers about what they need from A...
