Can we let this platform die quietly and stop bombarding the feed with Elmo spam?
63There's a community dedicated to Musk stories called Enough Musk Spam. I post in it all the time and I wholly advocate keeping most Musk/Twitter stories off this community unless they are of significant importance.
27I second this request. I haven’t give a shit about Twitter since it first came out.

X gonna get it from ya.
26Dumb Musk X - The remix.

Downvote Musk spam. He will say/do anything to stay in the 24 hour news cycle.
The billionaire doesn’t need your help ensuring him and his businesses stay in the headlines every day. Don't be a useful idiot.
14This is not just some random Musk garbage, but actual Twitter privacy policy and publuc should be thus be aware.

Garbage in...
14Glad I don't use X...
10X users are like that henchman in Austin Powers that refused to die, just kept updating everyone on his pain and slow death process. Just leave the platform or don't, but stop being surprised at every new indignity, if there were ever a line that shouldn't be crossed, it was left in the dust long ago.
9Twitter was transformed into a far-right Nazi sympathizing cesspool of misinformation, indoctrination and hate. If you haven’t blocked all DNS resolutions for the site by now you’re doing it wrong. The site will eventually be shut down due to these facts, it will just take another j6-like event to do it.
9Tay all over again. Except this time it will be training on apartheid billionaires midlife crisis
5In addition to the virulent racism, but I guess that part was a given

If there was ever a time to leave Twitter for good, it's now.
5If things before this didn't cause them to leave, this probably won't do a damn thing

That’s going to be one extremely bigoted AI.
5It will also have a very low attention span and not know anything of substance.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
As Ivanovs points out, X owner Elon Musk has ambitions to enter the AI market with another company, xAI.
This leads him to theorize that Musk likely intends to use X as a source of data for xAI — and perhaps Musk’s recent tweet encouraging journalists to write on X was even an attempt to generate more interesting and useful data to feed into the AI models.
In fact, Musk has previously stated that xAI would use “public tweets” to train its AI models, so this is not much of a leap.
Musk also filed suit against unknown entities for scraping Twitter data, which also may have been for the purpose of training artificial intelligence large language models.
Musk essentially confirmed the privacy policy change, responding to a post on X to clarify that the plan is to use “just public data, not DMs or anything private.”
X no longer responds to press requests with a poop emoji as it had following Musk’s takeover of the social network.
