Meta will start testing its Community Notes model, with which it’s replacing human fact checkers, on Facebook, Instagram and Threads in the US on March 18. Notes won’t appear publicly on posts right away. The company wants to make sure the writing and rating system is working as intended before the notes start showing up for everyone.
Things will work in a similar way to Community Notes on X, Meta says, with the idea that users bring extra context to posts that could use more explanation, clarity or perhaps a correction. In fact, Meta will initially base its ratings system on X’s open-source algorithm. ”This will allow us to build on what X has created and improve it for our own platforms over time,” the company said in its announcement.
