Deep Fake News

A new development in technology called "deep fakes" has become an increasingly popular way to spread fake news. Thankfully, Google is helping to filter out some of these websites that offer fake news. Recently there have been many accusations of fake news and hopefully google's new
"fact check" technology will be able to filter some of the sources out. The system is supposed to be able to find and evaluate the sources in an article to figure out if the information is legitimate or not. According to Raymond Wong, this new Google system "is effectively burying fake news and reducing its chances of spreading." Hopefully this will reduce the chance of being wrongly persuaded with fake facts.
