Elon Musk announces a set of the latest updates for Twitter:- Twitter’s CEO aims to combat the manipulation of public opinion and leverage the platform’s algorithms for the public

Elon Musk has announced that Twitter will use artificial intelligence to ‘detect and expose the manipulation of public opinion’ on the microblogging platform.

Musk was accused of promoting his tweets ‘above normal levels’ by tweaking Twitter’s algorithm to garner more impressions. However, Twitter’s CEO rubbished the claims.

“In the months ahead, we will use AI to detect & highlight manipulation of public opinion on this platform. Let’s see what the psy ops cat drags in …,” he said in a tweet.

In his latest update, Elon Musk shared that Twitter will open up all the code used to recommend tweets and claimed that people at the company have not fully understood the platform’s algorithm because it is overly complex.

“Our “algorithm” is overly complex & not fully understood internally. People will discover many silly things , but we’ll patch issues as soon as they’re found! We’re developing a simplified approach to serve more compelling tweets, but it’s still a work in progress. That’ll also be open source,” he tweeted.

Open sourcing allows code to be easily accessible to the public who can then modify and redistribute that code. This creates a decentralized and collaborative ecosystem that is relatively cheap and relies on peer review and community production.

“Providing code transparency will be incredibly embarrassing at first, but it should lead to rapid improvement in recommendation quality. Most importantly, we hope to earn your trust,” Musk added.
