X's AI Fact-Checking Expansion

X's AI Fact-Checking Expansion

1 July 2025

X is set to implement AI agents to generate Community Notes, aiming to accelerate its fact-checking capabilities and broaden its reach. This move follows concerns about manipulation and biases within the existing Community Notes system, where consensus-based fact-checking has faced challenges, with studies showing a significant percentage of notes remaining unseen due to failures in reaching agreements, especially on contentious topics.

The AI integration seeks to address these shortcomings by providing quicker and more comprehensive fact-checking across the platform. X's Community Notes feature relies on a bridging-based algorithm that emphasises agreement from users across the political spectrum. The initiative also builds upon the platform's recent pilot program designed to identify posts liked across diverse viewpoints, potentially fostering unity and meaningful dialogue.

AI generated content may differ from the original.
