Real-Time Fact-Checking

AI Study Go incorporates advanced fact-checking capabilities to ensure users receive accurate and reliable information during their learning sessions. This feature utilizes Deepgram for audio transcription and OpenAI for verifying the accuracy of spoken statements.

How It Works

1. Audio Input: The system captures spoken statements through your device's microphone
2. Transcription: Deepgram's technology converts speech to text with high accuracy
3. Analysis: The transcribed text is analyzed by OpenAI's models to verify factual claims
4. Verification: Statements are classified as factual, potentially misleading, or incorrect
5. Feedback: Users receive immediate feedback on the accuracy of the information

Using Fact-Checking

To activate the fact-checking feature:

1. Look for the microphone icon in the chat interface
2. Click the icon to begin recording your statement
3. Speak clearly into your microphone
4. When finished, click the stop button
5. The system will process your statement and provide verification

Understanding Verification Results

Fact-checking results are displayed with clear indicators:

• ✅ Verified Fact: The statement is accurate and supported by reliable sources
• ⚠️ Partially Accurate: The statement contains some truth but may be incomplete or slightly inaccurate
• ❌ Not Verified: The statement contains significant inaccuracies or cannot be verified
• ℹ️ Opinion/Subjective: The statement is subjective or represents an opinion rather than a fact

Benefits for Learning

The fact-checking feature provides several educational benefits:

• Information Reliability: Ensures learning is based on accurate information
• Critical Thinking: Encourages users to evaluate the accuracy of statements
• Source Evaluation: Helps users understand the importance of reliable sources
• Misconception Correction: Quickly identifies and corrects common misconceptions
• Confidence Building: Builds trust in the information being exchanged

Educational Use Cases

Fact-checking is particularly valuable in these educational contexts:

• Research Projects: Verify claims before including them in academic work
• Debate Preparation: Check the accuracy of arguments and counterarguments
• Self-Directed Learning: Ensure self-study materials contain accurate information
• Group Discussions: Maintain factual integrity during collaborative learning
• Presentation Practice: Verify facts before presenting to others

Technical Considerations

• Fact-checking works best in quiet environments with clear audio
• The feature may have limited effectiveness for highly specialized or cutting-edge topics
• Internet connectivity is required for optimal performance
• Some regional accents or specialized terminology may affect transcription accuracy

Privacy and Data Handling

• Audio recordings are processed in real-time and not stored permanently
• Transcribed text is handled according to our privacy policy
• Users can review and delete their fact-checking history at any time
