“This will be repeated every 4 weeks”
This sentence alone tells me it’s not really going to be made open-source.
You don’t need to open-source something repeatedly.They are only open sourcing the spaghetti that sticks to the wall.
Carefully curated and redacted/obscured/replaced where appropriate.
Probably removing hard coded rules like “always show musk tweets” and stuff like that
To be fair, I didn’t read the article…
But how would one open source an algorithm? Wouldn’t it be the implementation of an algorithm be what is open sourced?
I hate the overuse and frequent misunderstanding of this word.
Last week, my twitter feed started being filled with random political posts and engagement bait. It got so bad (about 70% is stuff I’m not interested in), that I’ve finally stopped using twitter.
I guess this could explain why the algorithm changed so suddenly.
The odds of something actually happening after Elon says it will happen are roughly 10%
They have to prio mars then opensource it!
