X Tests AI Chatbots for Community Notes
Elon Musk’s X is running a new pilot program that allows AI chatbots to generate Community Notes on the platform.
Details:
Community Notes are X's version of fact-checking, where people (and soon AI bots?) can add context to posts and flag questionable information.
These AI-generated notes—whether from Grok or another tool connected to X via an API—will be treated the same as notes submitted by humans and will go through the same vetting process.
Keith Coleman, X’s VP of Product and head of Community Notes, says the goal is to “increase the number of notes getting out there,” since humans don’t want to check every single post.
X also released a paper suggesting that collaboration between AI and humans could improve the overall quality of notes, though human raters will still have the final say before any note is published.
However, the idea raises concerns due to AI’s tendency to hallucinate, which could flood human raters with inaccurate submissions and potentially reduce the quality of their work.
X plans to test these AI contributions for a few weeks, and if the results are successful, it will roll them out more broadly.

Cloudflare to Block AI Crawlers by Default
Starting this week, internet firm Cloudflare will block AI crawlers by default unless website owners explicitly allow them or are compensated.
Details:
Cloudflare will now ask new domain owners whether they want to allow AI scrapers, introducing a “Pay Per Crawl” program that lets them charge for access to their websites—giving AI companies the choice to pay or opt out.
The program is in beta and only available for “a group of some of the leading publishers and content creators” for now.
Additionally, Cloudflare will work with AI companies to help verify their crawlers and allow them to “clearly state their purpose,” enabling website owners to review this information and decide which crawlers to allow.
According to CEO Matthew Prince, the initiative aims to protect creators’ rights while still supporting AI innovation and publishers like The Associated Press, The Atlantic, and Stack Overflow are backing these restrictions.
Cloudflare handles about 16% of global internet traffic, making this a significant shift in how AI developers access data to train their models.
