“‘They can help deliver a lot more notes #faster with #LessWork, but ultimately the decision on what’s helpful enough to show still comes down to #humans,’ Coleman said Tuesday in an interview. “So we think that combination is incredibly #powerful.”
There are currently hundreds of notes published to Twitter (x) every day, Coleman said, and while he doesn’t have a target for how that might change once AI is involved, there could be a “significant” increase. Twitter (x) first debuted a crowd-sourced fact-checking program when the company was still known as #Twitter, and well before Musk’s 2022 takeover. But its focus on #CommunityNotes has increased under Musk’s ownership, and has recently been adopted by other companies, including #Meta Platforms Inc. and #ByteDance Ltd.’s #TikTok.
Musk himself has said Community Notes serves as a bulwark against #FalseInformation, calling it hoax kryptonite, but he is also regularly #flagged by the fact-checking process for posting misleading information.”

This paper provides a comprehensive review of false information dissemination, focusing on factors influencing its spread in the context of social media and information systems. The study synthesizes recent literature to identify and categorize 30 influence factors into eight main categories: demographic, personality-related, psychological, policy- and values-based, informational, media consumption-related, motivational, and preventive factors. Key findings indicate that low education, high extraversion, and conservative values significantly increase false information dissemination. Additionally, social media usage, emotional responses, and information overload play critical roles in promoting its dissemination. Preventive strategies, such as labeling content and training in false information recognition, are also examined. This review aims to improve understanding of the dynamics of false information dissemination and proposes strategies to mitigate its impact.
