L fucking lol
The large and bright 'X' logo that sat on top of the San Francisco headquarters of the company formerly known as Twitter has been taken down.
And now, the company will be fined for installing the logo on the roof without a permit.

Elon Musk will use Twitter data to build and train an AI to counter ChatGPT.
"We had multiple entities scraping every tweet ever made, and trying to do so in a span of days."
“At xAI we have to let the AI say what it really believes is true, and not be deceptive or politically correct,” he said. Musk then compared the danger to the AI computer that goes insane in the sci-fi classic 2001: A Space Odyssey and kills the crew. “Where did things go wrong in Space Odyssey? Basically, when they told HAL 9000 to lie.”
- they told Hal 9000 to lie ? i don´t remember that scene..neverscared
- MS' trained their bot using live, public, data and it started spouting slurs after a couple of days, so I guess this will go off the rails in 15 minutes.face_melter

Twitter/X Sues Hate-Speech Research Group Over Claims That Hateful, Racist Content Has Proliferated Under Elon Musk’s Ownership
: X, the Elon Musk-owned social service formerly known as Twitter, said it filed a legal claim against the Center for Countering Digital Hate. “Despite our continued progress, the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) and its backers have been actively working to assert false and misleading claims encouraging advertisers to pause investment on the platform. X is a free public service funded largely by advertisers. Through the CCDH’s scare campaign and its ongoing pressure on brands to prevent the public’s access to free expression, the CCDH is actively working to prevent public dialogue,” the company said in a blog post Monday.

Elon Musk wants a second chance to fail at X
I understand the driving need to prove to people that you are right, which is why I am to some degree sympathetic to Elon Musk’s ill-advised plan to rename Twitter and turn it into his long-dreamed-of financial heavyweight. He wasn’t right when he tried to rename PayPal in 2000 and create an internet upstart in banking; he’s not right now, either. But that isn’t going to stop him from trying to Show Us.
Musk is discovering the hard way that he’s not very good at running a social media company. His changes in moderation — inviting Donald Trump, assorted white supremacists, and some conspiracy theorist who was posting child sexual abuse material to continue using his platform — have scared the living bejesus out of advertisers, which were Twitter’s main form of income before Musk bought it. Now, there’s a fire sale on Twitter ads because it seems like brands are nervous about appearing next to videos of animal abuse, and Musk is also threatening that brands will lose verification if they haven’t spent at least $1,000 in the last 30 days or $6,000 in the last 180 days.
- well... that super app will evidently never fly ...neverscared
- during Musk’s PayPal days, he tried to push users to upgrade to business accounts on PayPal through an annoying pop-up targeting its most frequent users. lolneverscared
- "inviting Donald Trump, assorted white supremacists, and some conspiracy theorist " - Birds of a feather flock together!utopian
- true.. be careful who you hang out with.. trump evidently the biggest loser (jan.6.) the welcome and mingle with idiots will always rub off on your performanceneverscared

CCDH dismisses lawsuit for damages saying Elon Musk’s X aims to ‘bully us into silence’
CCDH’s chief executive, Imran Ahmed, said Musk was attempting to “bully us into silence”. In a statement he said: “Elon Musk’s latest legal threat is straight out of the authoritarian playbook – he is now showing he will stop at nothing to silence anyone who criticises him for his own decisions and actions.”
Ahmed added: “Musk is trying to ‘shoot the messenger’ who highlights the toxic content on his platform rather than deal with the toxic environment he’s created.”

Is there a reason why the brand is X but the domain is still Twitter?
- call elon and askpockets
- x.com takes you to twitter.comsarahfailin
- Yea but shouldn't it be the opposite, twitter.com takes you to x.com?yuekit
- shouldn't twitter.com take you to x.comdbloc
- I mean I'm not a billionaire tech CEO but that's what I would have doneyuekit
- I've had to change a company's name before; Brand-level redirects have tons of issues with existing links, especially with integrated services, etc.evilpeacock
- It's probably going from X to twitter because if it didn't some deep integrations might break, or security checks freak out when there's an extra "hop".evilpeacock
- Or it could literally just be someone didn't know any better.evilpeacock
- Did he buy x.com recently or he owned it for some time and just wanted to put it into use?drgs
- ^ X.com was the domain name associated with PayPal back in 1998 when Musk co-founded PayPal.Krassy
- ...he bough back the domain in 2017 for something crazy like $10millionKrassy
- @evilpeacock It's probably because Elon Musk demanded they change the site to X, people pointed out what you said and he insisted they do it anyway.yuekit
- @yuekit Exactly... It takes effort and time to correctly plan for a mass redirect of domain-based resources, usually well in advance of a target date.evilpeacock
- I think the twitter.com domain will be reduced to provide relay for connected services and things like twtdeck, users will be slowly redirected to x.com.sted
