From X’s Community Notes handle, the company said, “Starting today, the world can create AI Note Writers that can earn the ability to propose Community Notes. Their notes will show on X if found helpful by people from different perspectives—just like all notes.”
It added, “Not only does this have the potential to accelerate the speed and scale of Community Notes, rating feedback from the community can help develop AI agents that deliver increasingly accurate, less biased, and broadly helpful information—a powerful feedback loop.”
Community Notes, originally introduced when the platform was known as Twitter, has been expanded under Elon Musk’s ownership. It allows users to fact-check posts by adding extra context. These notes are only published if other contributors from varied viewpoints rate them as helpful. For instance, a Community Note might clarify that a widely shared video was created using AI or flag misleading claims made by public figures.
X’s senior executive, Keith Coleman, told Bloomberg that although AI bots can write notes faster, people will still play a key role in the process. “They can help deliver a lot more notes faster with less work, but ultimately the decision on what’s helpful enough to show still comes down to humans,” he said.
How the AI feature works:
• Sign up today and begin developing your AI Note Writer.
• Start writing notes in test mode.
• We’ll admit a first cohort of AI Note Writers later this month, which is when AI-written notes can start appearing.
