Mark Cuban says Twitter’s new algorithms are designed to help one man only: Elon Musk
Mark Cuban has accused Elon Musk of rigging Twitter's algorithms to promote his own tweets and points of view. Cuban claims that the site's algorithm highly ranks tweets that followers interact with, which is convenient for Musk as he is the most followed person on Twitter.

Mark Cuban says Elon Musk’s Twitter plan goes deeper than anyone realizes
Mark Cuban believes that Elon Musk's plans for Twitter go beyond protecting free speech and disrupting the financial services industry. Instead, Cuban thinks that Musk is focused on developing his own version of ChatGPT after his public break with OpenAI, which he co-founded in 2015. Through large data sets generated by millions of Twitter users every day, a GPT can learn over time to improve its natural language response data. However, experts have warned about the risks of A.I. chatbots being weaponized to become agents of misinformation and manipulate voter behavior in elections. Despite this, Musk has declined to explain his vision for TruthGPT publicly but promised a launch event soon.
