Why Mark Zuckerberg is praising Elon Musk and Community Notes

Despite past disagreements, Zuckerberg and Musk seem to share common ground when it comes to fact-checking. The Meta CEO justified his company’s shift towards a similar crowdsourced model, explaining that X’s approach—where users add context to posts—has proven to be more reliable than traditional fact-checking methods. Zuckerberg openly acknowledged that when a competitor creates a superior system, it is Meta’s responsibility to adopt and improve upon it. He believes that integrating such a model will lead to better moderation across Meta’s platforms.
