Elon Musk's X introduced community notes to improve social media fact-checking by crowdsourcing opinions on the trustworthiness of posts. The platform is now planning to implement AI to generate these community notes, which could enhance the speed and volume of fact-checking. However, the initiative carries risks, particularly regarding the accuracy of AI-generated notes. X acknowledges that while AI can contribute to this system, it may also produce persuasive but inaccurate notes that diminish user trust over time. Ultimately, the balance between AI and human reviewers aims to foster better fact-checking practices.
AI could potentially enhance community notes by increasing speed and number, but there are risks including the generation of persuasive yet inaccurate notes that undermine trust.
X's initiative aims to use AI for community notes but acknowledges the risks involved, such as the possibility that AI-generated notes could be misleading.
