I contribute to Community Notes on X and occasionally edit Wikipedia. It's satisfying to fix small errors where people actually look for answers. Nothing grand—just a hobby.
Most of my Community Notes are in Spanish. There seems to be a supply gap: not enough contributors who speak Spanish relative to the demand. So that's where I end up being useful.
I've been tinkering with how to automate parts of this process with Claude Code / Cowork. Suggestions welcome.
My friend Steve Isley built something interesting: an AI system that fact-checked Elon Musk's Cybertruck post and got a Community Note approved. Check out the Open Note Network, his detailed writeup, the GitHub, and the AI For Human Reasoning Fellowship.
From Steve's writeup: "I'm not actually going to continue maintaining this project, but I hope that the lessons I learned will be helpful to other people attempting to build AI-based fact checking systems." If you're interested in picking this up, reach out to him or me.
