Signs of AI detected
The tools found signs that it was made or changed with AI, such as a generated photo, a swapped face or a cloned voice. That doesn’t tell you whether the claim in it is true or false.
How it works
Check election content before you share it
Verify is for photos, videos, voice notes, links and messages about the elections: candidates, parties, voting and results. An instant check looks for signs of AI, and fact-checkers look into claims when you ask.
- 1
Check content for signs of AI
Upload a photo, video or voice note, paste a link or enter text.
- 2
Read the result
The check offers an indication, not a guarantee that the content is authentic or true.
- 3
Ask a fact-checker
If you want more context, submit a request for further review. Fact-checkers are people, so this takes longer.
- 4
Save your code
Use it to check on your request. Once a fact-checker starts on it, we’ll show when to check back.
What the results mean
Every instant check gets one of three results.
Inconclusive
The signs are weak, or the tools don’t agree, so we can’t say either way. Treat it with care until you know more.
No clear signs of AI detected
The tools didn’t find clear signs of AI. That doesn’t make it authentic or true: real photos and videos can be old, cut or shared with the wrong story.
How sure the tools are
When we find signs of AI, we also say how sure the tools are.
High. The detection tools agree strongly.
Medium. The tools found signs, but they don’t all agree.
When the signs are weak, the result is Inconclusive.
A result is not a verdict
The instant check only looks for signs of AI. It can’t tell you whether something is true. To find out, ask a fact-checker once you see your result. Fact-checkers are people, so this takes longer.
Even real photos and videos can be old, cut, or shared with the wrong story.
