However, Musk also acknowledged a critical flaw in this approach. He pointed out that the algorithm currently lacks the sophistication to distinguish between content that users genuinely appreciate and content they share out of outrage or disagreement. “Unfortunately, if the actual reason you forwarded the content to friends was because you were outraged by it, we are currently not smart enough to realize that,” Musk admitted.
The post also raises questions about the future direction of X’s algorithm and whether adjustments will be made to better understand and respond to user behavior. As Musk continues to steer the platform through its latest evolution, the handling of these algorithmic challenges will likely play a crucial role in shaping the user experience on X.
Meanwhile, Musk appears to have made a slip-up amidst his series of posts opposing the ban of his social media platform X (formerly Twitter) in Brazil.
In a meme shared on his X account, suggesting that users in Brazil were using VPNs to access the site, Musk inadvertently used a meme that referred to the platform by its old name—Twitter.
