Dzen has updated its AI assistant, Glifa, to improve the accuracy of news explanations. According to internal tests, the share of responses providing necessary context increased from 65% to 80%, while factual errors decreased by 35%.

The update involves revised system instructions for the model. Glifa now analyzes article content to generate three potential reader questions, selects the most relevant one, and provides an explanation based on the news context and its training data.

The company verified these improvements using a sample of 10,000 news articles. The assistant is designed to clarify the causes, interconnections, and potential consequences of reported events for the users.

Dzen reports a growing user interest in the tool. In October, the monthly audience of the AI assistant reached 5 million people, according to Anna Gorbik, the company's product director.
