80% of fact-checked misinformation claims involve media, with a rise in AI-generated content in 2023, according to a new study, “A Large-Scale Survey and Dataset of Media-Based Misinformation In-The-Wild.” Worth a read for journalists, especially fact-checkers.
TL;DR:
• 📊 135,838 fact checks analyzed
• 📸 80% of these claims involve media
• 🎥 Videos became more common starting in 2022, now more than 60% of fact-checked claims that include media
• 🤖 AI-generated content was rare until Spring of 2023, and then dramatically increased
• 🖼️ Image manipulations don’t require complex operations. Most of the time it’s context manipulations
• Read the paper here: AMMeBa: A Large-Scale Survey and Dataset of Media-Based Misinformation In-The-Wild (2405.11697)
• Take a look at the dataset: academic-datasets/AMMeBa
