+# Model Card for Fake News Detection Model
 
+## Model Summary
 
+This is a fine-tuned DistilBERT model for **fake news detection**. It classifies news articles as either **real** or **fake** based on textual content. The model has been trained on a labeled dataset consisting of true and false news articles collected from various sources.
 
 ## Model Details
 
 ### Model Description

 ## Uses
 
-<!-- Address questions around how the model is intended to be used, including the foreseeable users of the model and those affected by the model. -->
-
 ### Direct Use
 
-<!-- This section is for the model use without fine-tuning or plugging into a larger ecosystem/app. -->
-
-[More Information Needed]
+- This model can be used to detect whether a given news article is **real or fake**.
+- It can be integrated into fact-checking platforms, misinformation detection systems, and social media moderation tools.
 
-### Downstream Use [optional]
+### Downstream Use
 
-<!-- This section is for the model use when fine-tuned for a task, or when plugged into a larger ecosystem/app -->
-
-[More Information Needed]
+- Can be further fine-tuned on domain-specific fake news datasets.
+- Useful for media companies, journalists, and researchers studying misinformation.
 
 ### Out-of-Scope Use
 
-<!-- This section addresses misuse, malicious use, and uses that the model will not work well for. -->
-
-[More Information Needed]
+- This model is **not designed for generating news content**.
+- It may not work well for languages other than English.
+- Not suitable for fact-checking complex claims requiring external knowledge.
 
 ## Bias, Risks, and Limitations
 
-<!-- This section is meant to convey both technical and sociotechnical limitations. -->
+### Risks
 
-[More Information Needed]
+- The model may be biased towards certain topics, sources, or writing styles based on the dataset used for training.
+- There is a possibility of **false positives (real news misclassified as fake)** or **false negatives (fake news classified as real)**.
+- Model performance can degrade on out-of-distribution samples.
 
 ### Recommendations
 
-<!-- This section is meant to convey recommendations with respect to the bias, risk, and technical limitations. -->
+- Users should **not rely solely** on this model for determining truthfulness.
+- It is recommended to **use human verification** and **cross-check information** from multiple sources.
+
+## How to Use the Model
 
-Users (both direct and downstream) should be made aware of the risks, biases and limitations of the model. More information needed for further recommendations.
+You can load the model using `transformers` and use it for inference as shown below:
 
-## How to Get Started with the Model
+```python
+from transformers import DistilBertTokenizerFast, DistilBertForSequenceClassification
+import torch
 
-Use the code below to get started with the model.
+tokenizer = DistilBertTokenizerFast.from_pretrained("your-model-id")
+model = DistilBertForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained("your-model-id")
 
-[More Information Needed]
+def predict(text):
+    inputs = tokenizer(text, return_tensors="pt", truncation=True, padding=True, max_length=512)
+    outputs = model(**inputs)
+    probs = torch.nn.functional.softmax(outputs.logits, dim=-1)
+    return "Fake News" if torch.argmax(probs) == 1 else "Real News"
+
+text = "Breaking: Scientists discover a new element!"
+print(predict(text))
+```
