As X-owner Elon Musk recently said there are no great social networks right now but he is trying to make at least one, X (formerly Twitter) has taken another step to combat fake news by introducing Community Notes for videos.

The company announced from its ‘@CommunityNotes’ account on September 5, 2023, “Not just for images anymore — introducing notes on videos!”

The company further mentioned, “Notes written on videos will automatically show on other posts containing matching videos. A highly-scalable way of adding context to edited clips, AI-generated videos, and more. Available to all Top Writers.”

The company had rolled out its Community Notes feature globally in December last year. Later, in May this year, the company started supporting Community Notes for images so that users can get more context wherever an image appears.
Last month, the company announced, "Notes on images automatically show on posts that contain a matching image — a superpower for addressing AI-generated images, edited photos, and more. It’s common for these notes to match on dozens, hundreds and sometimes thousands of posts. Now, you can see how many posts an image note is matching on, right in note details."
According to the company, Community Notes aim to create a better-informed world by empowering people on the platform to collaboratively add context to potentially misleading posts. Community Notes do not represent the company's viewpoint and cannot be edited or modified by X's teams. A post with a Community Note is not labelled, removed, or addressed by the company unless it is found to be violating the company’s rules, Terms of Service, or the Privacy Policy.
This is an open and transparent process, that’s why the company has made the Community Notes algorithm open source and publicly available on GitHub, along with the data that powers it so anyone can audit, analyse or suggest improvements.
