X's Community Notes uses AI writer API to scale content moderation

A new paper details the design and impact of an AI Note Writer API for X's Community Notes feature, which allows AI to propose notes for posts. The Community Writer, a major client of this API, generates a significant portion of the notes shown to users and is notable for its speed and additive contribution alongside human writers. This open-source system aims to scale Community Notes while maintaining user control over content. AI

IMPACT This system demonstrates how AI can augment human moderation efforts at scale, potentially influencing other platforms' content management strategies.
