PUTRAJAYA, Jan 23 (Bernama) -- The Artificial Intelligence Fact-Checking Assistant (AIFA) service on WhatsApp will be temporarily disrupted due to scheduled system maintenance, the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) said.

In a statement, it said the service disruption will last for two hours today, from 8.00 am to 10.00 am, before operations resume as normal.

“During this period, the public can still access verified information and carry out fact checks through the Sebenarnya.my portal, which will operate without disruption,” MCMC said.

MCMC also apologised for any inconvenience caused and thanked the public for their understanding.
