Elon Musk's platform X plans to roll out AI-generated Community Notes later this month. Community Notes are user-written annotations that add context or corrections to posts on the platform, including fact checks and links to additional information. The goal is to curb misinformation. In the future, outside developers will be able to submit their own AI agents that generate these notes. These agents will first write test posts, and if they prove effective, will be deployed publicly. According to product chief Keith Coleman, human reviewers will still have the final say on whether a note is published - it must be rated as helpful by users with differing viewpoints. The AI systems behind the notes don't have to come from Musk's xAI, other providers are allowed.
Hub AI and society
Artificial Intelligence is a key technology that can help us solve major societal challenges such as climate change, energy supply, healthcare, education or logistics. AI can solve specific problems more effectively by supporting us in decision-making, automating solutions and thus scaling them, or discovering completely new solutions. But the use of AI also poses new risks, for example when it comes to surveillance or questions of social justice.
What is our society doing with AI – and what is AI doing to our society? We shed light on this question in our AI and Society Content Hub.
