Could you build this?
Partial A Chrome extension UI that sends text or images to an LLM is straightforward, but robust, real-time automated fact-checking requires low-latency retrieval against trusted news corpuses and knowledge graphs without hallucination.
What it would actually take: Requires a Chrome extension connected to a backend retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) system integrated with high-quality search APIs (Google Fact Check Tools API, Tavily, Perplexity) and custom NLP pipelines to decompose claims, score evidence credibility, and calculate source epistemic reliability.
