Reply to comment by AndromedaAnimated in I created an AI to replace Fox and CNN by redditguyjustinp

Great questions thanks for asking!

Which news - I have a list of about 15 different sources that I am currently pulling from. Its not a silver bullet for bias, but I'm hoping that at least by pulling from multiple sources I can provide the missing context to each story that is often left out on the more biased outlets.

Real vs. fake - Basically my bet is that as AI gets smarter, it will be able to identify which facts/arguments are consistent with the evidence and slowly develop a more accurate picture of reality as information comes in.

Yes I am currently building functionality such that it can reach out to primary sources directly via the internet and conduct interviews, investigations, etc. I also think I can continue to take advantage of the more neutral "newswire" type services like Reuters and AP even if this ends up becoming a dominant source of news.

I think you are creating something really good there.

I suggest including international news sources too if you haven’t already.

Thank you for answering my questions!
