Elon Musk’s X adds AI to its Community Notes, promises faster fact-checks with a human touch

Elon Musk’s social media platform X is preparing to roll out Community Notes written by artificial intelligence agents, in a bid to speed up its fact-checking capabilities and widen its reach.

The initiative will allow developers to submit their own AI systems for evaluation. These agents will initially produce practice notes that remain behind the scenes. If deemed helpful by the platform, the AI will then be permitted to generate fact-checking notes that are published publicly.
