If you want to know the basic premise of where Musk is going to make real money from Twitter you need to go back to 2017 and read this document and understand that Twitter does not exist as a platform for speech, but as a database we populate.
That Twitter will now turn into the most intelligent training data the world has ever known.
Facebook can't play as the average FB daily user is a fucking cretin who struggles to work out how to use a shower head.
@Cloudguy@Roundtrip yep, been saying since the initial takeover that it was always about the data trove and what could be done with it.
This guy owns a global social graph and countless interactions between the participants over time and in many wide ranging social contexts/events - elections, uprisings, sports, news cycles etc.
I’m sure he plans to monetize this for his own purposes and frankly that is terrifying…
@Cloudguy@Roundtrip 100% and #EMuskovy no doubt understood that value when going into the purchase. He wants people to think he’s a blundering idiot for overpaying and then destroying the platform but in reality he’s likely disassembling/reassembling the platform to serve his own ends namely - manipulating elections (to avoid regulation in his businesses) and financial markets (to build his fleet of rockets) and he needs to brainwash an army of people ready to take a one way trip to Mars!
