Catch AI in a Lie in 5 Minutes

Three simple tricks to find errors in AI responses - works today, no payment needed

  1. 1.Open the AI response you want to check. Highlight three to four main claims in it: numbers, dates, names, facts. Write them down separately.

    Check actual factual claims: 「The capital of France is Paris」, 「GDP grew 2.1% in Q2 2026」, 「The hydrogen bomb was created in 1952」 - not opinions.

    Text editor or notepad
  2. 2.For each claim, open FactOrFake (checkthisfact.com) in your browser. Type one claim from the AI response into the chat box and press Enter.

    FactOrFake is a free donation-based tool. It searches in real-time and gives an answer within 30 seconds. No registration required.

    Prompt
    Verify if this is true: [claim from AI response]
    What this prompt doesReplace [claim from AI response] with one of your highlighted statements. For example: 「Verify if this is true: Brazil's population exceeds 220 million people」. FactOrFake will check this against authoritative sources and give you a rating (true, false, or unclear).
  3. 3.Record the FactOrFake result for each claim. If it got a TRUE rating - good. If FALSE or MIXED - you found an error in the AI response.

    Look for clear errors, not perfection. A MIXED rating usually means the AI oversimplified or distorted a complex fact.

  4. 4.Repeat steps 2-3 for the remaining claims (3-4 checks total). This will take 2-3 minutes.

    You don't need to check the entire response. Focus on the most important and disputed claims - the ones the whole idea rests on.

  5. 5.If the AI was wrong in two out of four checks - that's a red flag. The result is unreliable. Trust only facts you've confirmed yourself from authoritative sources.

    Research shows: when AI makes an error in one place, it often makes errors elsewhere too. This is not coincidence - it's a pattern.
