# AutoFactcheck

### **How to use**

Misinformation is rampant on Twitter and fact checking is tedious. AutoFactcheck solves this problem by using artificial intelligence to instantly verify if a tweet is accurate. Simply highlight a selection from a Tweet, right click, and click on "Factcheck." The AI will give a rating, a brief explanation, and links to reliable sources. It will also automatically populate a reply for you on Twitter. 

### **Installation Instructions**

1. Download this repo as a [ZIP file from GitHub](https://github.com/sijiawen/factcheckextension/archive/refs/heads/main.zip).

2. Unzip the file and you should have a folder named **factcheckextension**.

3. In Chrome, go to the extensions page (`chrome://extensions`).

4. Enable Developer Mode.

5. Drag the **factcheckextension** folder anywhere on the page to import it (do not delete the folder afterwards).
