Who checks the checkers?

me. I volunteer as ultimate arbiter of Truth.

maybe some community-driven and curated source blacklist could be implemented. It thing it would be too much for you doing that alone :)

me.

To paraphrase Monty Python “supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony" (or authority based on a self declaration)

In the age of ai, where you can flood the zone with easily generated content, even a democratic society might struggle to maintain an stable sense of shared reality and history

all the more necessary to have trusted curators of information

At the moment - it's model's judgement upon search results for every claim from provided content. If search results returned inaccurate data, or were fabricated - it might affect a verdict for that claim, or highlight that it's unverifiable or contradictory.

But there is a room for improvement, what do you suggest? Have a Judge agent which will check results?
