Summary/Abstract: The emergence and development of new information and communication technologies has opened up vast opportunities for people to communicate, create and distribute content through multiple services and platforms, exercising their rights on and off the Internet. They have become the new center of attraction for active information exchange due to their accessibility, sense of community and understanding between its members. The direct communication is both the advantage and the disadvantage of this type of media. Along with their indisputable advantages, their main disadvantage was also discovered - the possibility of being used as a means of disinformation among the public and subsequent manipulation through the spread of so-called „fake news“. This article examines the possibilities of using artificial intelligence systems as a tool in the fight against fake news, summarizing scientific research on the subject. At the same time, the issue of the risks of using artificial intelligence systems to freedom of speech is also discussed.
