Additional information requested

Hi Gabriel, thanks for the submission. Could you say a little more related to the way that this tool will present relevant topics? In particular:

  • can you explain if there is something additional in terms doing a frequency check on meaningful terms that result from an NLP analysis (is this how you approach what a relevant topic is?)
  • because part of your application directly addresses misinformation, is there something particular it would provide w/r/t additional context in these cases? (consider https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_Earth versus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myth_of_the_flat_Earth, both?)

Also, as a final question related to challenges:

  • Have you given thought to this backfiring in any way?

Thanks! -Connie, 7 April 2020
