Re: EC Disinformation Action Plan

Although the EC's disinformation action plan doesn't reference AI, this 
study by the European Parliament addresses the policy options: 
https://www.europarl.europa.eu/RegData/etudes/STUD/2019/624279/EPRS_STU(2019)624279_EN.pdf 


This article claims a 92% detection rate: 
https://whatsnewinpublishing.com/turning-fake-news-against-itself-ai-tool-can-detect-disinformation-with-92-accuracy

This one references a joint MIT/Harvard initiative to improve 
journalism: 
https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2019/these-projects-are-using-ai-to-fight-misinformation/

As time permits, I will continue rendering such plans in StratML 
format.  The StratML collection <http://stratml.us/drybridge/index.htm> 
currently contains about 82 plans 
<https://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=AI&btnG=Google+Search&domains=stratml.us&sitesearch=stratml.us> 
referencing AI.  (Unfortunately, Google returns the entire files and 
doesn't enable direct links to the sections of the plans in which the 
queried terms reside.  Better query services are needed that take 
advantage of both the structure as well as the semantics of valid XML 
files.  Existing full-text query services are artificially ignorant 
<https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/artificial-ignorance-owen-ambur/> and, 
thus, needlessly wasteful of users' time and attention.)
