Aunt Meiyu and IPC jointly develop the AI ​​recognition function of image rumors

The suspicious information verification robot "Aunt Meiyu" is a product of Trust Technology Gogolook (Let's see Co., Ltd.), and was recently selected as a tool for identifying false regulatory information.

According to Aunt Meiyu’s observation, in recent years, many lawbreakers have turned suspicious messages such as scams and farm texts into pictures with text in an attempt to evade the defense of verification tools in the form of imitating pictures of elders.

In order to combat the spread of such fraud and suspicious information, Gogolook's suspicious information verification robot, Meiyu Yi, has teamed up with the Information Policy Association to launch a new "image rumor identification" function, introducing the "multi-modal information comparison technology" developed by the Information Policy Association to analyze the information sent by the public. The content of the suspicious pictures, and then compare the real and fake of the collaborative verification platform Cofacts, the Taiwan Fact Checking Center and the verification database of "MyGoPen｜Mai Fang Lie" to effectively decipher the suspicious information hidden behind the pictures!

Team leader Chen Yiyi of the Software Institute of the Information Strategy Council, who participated in the development and cooperation of Aunt Meiyu's new functions, explained: "When pictures are combined with sensational text, the suspicious information will increase people's willingness to repost and read it due to the visualization, so that people will no doubt share it with their relatives and friends. , to accelerate the spread of fraud and fake news. Aunt Meiyu already has a stable user base and verification needs in China. We are very happy to help Aunt Meiyu expand the scope of fraud prevention in communication software and actively participate in the ranks of the national team for anti-fraud !"

Aunt Meiyu can compare multiple check databases and provide multiple check results, alleviating people’s doubts about rumors about unfamiliar pictures!"

Supported by the Ministry of Economic Affairs, the Capital Policy Council will continue to deepen the development of AI digital trust authentication technology to expand the benefits of industrial applications

In fact, in the past, the Institute of Information Policy was entrusted by the Technology Department of the Ministry of Economic Affairs to invest in the research and development of AI digital trust authentication technology. By linking the energy of real estate, academia and research, it conducts technical exchanges and cooperation with international organizations, and develops effective prevention of various types of false information. , dissemination, reproduction, and attack technologies, and use technological energy to assist partners in the fact-checking ecosystem to correct misinformation.

Capital Strategy will invest more internal resources to continue to cultivate the field of AI fact-checking technology, in-depth identification and analysis across different types of information such as text, video, pictures, and voice, and form an integrated multi-modal identification technology and solution.

Since the beginning of this year, the IPC team has extended this core technology to the automatic detection of false and illegal advertisements and e-commerce fraud information, hoping to use the power of the IPC's third-party role to integrate fact checking/prevention in different fields. Providers with expertise in fraudulent services, build a national-level joint defense system, and bring stability to the society.
