Elon Musk warns Twitter that algorithm manipulating users

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, warned Twitter users that they are being manipulated by the algorithm in ways that they don't realize. Musk wrote on Twitter that you were being manipulated by the algorithm in ways you don't realize.

Musk put the $44 billion Twitter deal on hold for a few days after he put it on hold for a couple of days over pending details supporting the calculation that spam and fake accounts represent less than 5 per cent of users.

It is important for users to fix their Twitter feeds, according to Musk. Musk suggested the following three steps through which this can be done:

Tap stars in the upper right of the screen.

It's easy to switch back and forth to see the difference, wrote Musk.

Musk wrote in another tweet that was brought to you by the Illuminaughty.

The former Twitter CEO responded to Musk's tweet. Jack Dorsey said that it was designed to save you time when you are away from the app for a while. He added that the pull to refresh goes back to reverse chron.

Musk later clarified that he was not suggesting that the Twitter algorithm was malicious.

I'm not suggesting that there's malice in the algorithm, but rather that it's trying to guess what you might want to read and inadvertently manipulate amplify your viewpoints without you realizing that this is happening, wrote. There are not many bugs in the code. He said open source is the best way to solve both trust and efficacy.

Elon Musk stated on Saturday that Twitter Inc's legal team accused him of violating a nondisclosure agreement by revealing that the sample size for the social media platform's checks on automated users was 100.

The legal firm of Twitter has called to complain that they violated their NDA by revealing the bot check sample size is 100! Musk tweeted on Saturday.

One of his priorities would be to remove spam bots from the platform, according to some tweets of late by the world's richest man.
