TL;DR: We find that the current line of AI-based anti-misinformation works are greatly limited to producing more information, and needs to be made more meaningful by considering insights from other domains, and suggest ways to move forward.
Abstract: This paper takes a position on how anti-misinformation AI should be developed for the online misinformation context. We observe that the current literature is dominated by works that produce more information for users to process and that this function faces various challenges in bringing meaningful effects to reality. We use insights from other domains to suggest a redirection of this body of works.
