ML based fake news detector.


The real world has a lot of news generated every seconds some real ,some fake and some partially true.There's a lot of money spent on huge projects to detect fake news by Facebook,Google and other companies.In these project we have tried to accomplish detection of fake news to some extent.The user has option to provide news source link or news headline,content to truthify just by click of a button. .

"In this era of fake news and paid news artificial intelligence is more and more used as a political tool to manipulate and dictate common people. Through big data, biometric data AI analyses online profiles and behaviors in social media and smart phones. But the days are not far when AI will also control the politicians and the media too."
