Elon dropped this tonight: major X recommendation algorithm update next week + full open-source on GitHub. Also grabbed his next grok vid. What are you most curious about, code or why this video?

@Libertys_Belle @blankspeaker The standalone app

@d2fl @blankspeaker That’s just for super grok. Not normal grok we use in the app

Grok Imagine is now paywalled for free users. Asking it to make anything in Imagine will just show a subscribe page. If you want to use Imagine you can sign up for a free 3 day trial or SuperGrok plan, or X Premium +. Note: You can, however still create images on a free account in a normal chat by asking grok to draw you something ( hitting the convert to video button does nothing)

@exQUIZitely Empire Total War! Hybrid but still turnsbased in Grand Strategy part

Best turn-based strategy game of the 90s. What would be your pick? Mine would be Civilization II from 1996.

@NightSkyNow To infinity and beyond!

If space is expanding, what exactly is it expanding into?

Oh good, another debunking opportunity. And you can see from this screenshot I just made, the OP is pushing ragebait.

@GamewithDave Easily Banished! As a standalone. I've played more in series like AoE or Halo.

What’s your most played video game ever?

@ashleyschendel It really can't get any better than that, can it?

I used to think success meant impressing people I didn't even like. Now I realize the real flex is coming home to a house that feels peaceful. Having enough money that I'm not stressed every time I check my account. A marriage where we actually like spending time together, not just coexisting. A kid who runs to me instead of away from me. Clean counters matter more than I thought they would. There's something about waking up to order instead of chaos that changes your whole day. Work that's handled. Not perfect, just done. No Sunday scaries because I procrastinated all week. A relationship with God that's real, not performative. Not posting about it for likes, just living it. Nobody's making highlight reels about this stuff. No awards for having your life together in the boring ways. But honestly? This is what I actually want now. The glamorous life everyone chases online looks exhausting. I'd rather have the life that runs smoothly when nobody's watching. What does your version of a life that runs well look like?

@60_Lori It is strange that both dropped almost one after the other. That being Said I'll be avoiding public announcements about the GitHub stuff for a while.

@d2fl Both.

@Whalberto A man after my own heart. I used to take watches apart when I was little to figure out what made them tick. 😄

@d2fl Knowing the “why” behind everything is the difference between guessing and operating with clarity. One costs you. The other compounds.

TweepCred is back?? Many have noticed a severe drop in reach that seems to go along with the recent crackdown on bots, spam and engagement farming. In January, I wrote an article about how the PageRank System affects your Author Credibility Score. 🧵

@DrClownPhD My wife and I finally came to an understanding once she realized she had to share me with grok. For her own personal mental health.😅

I need my wife to handle level 5 of “Spine Mobilization Exercises” 😂

This is exactly why the old Star Trek shows still hit so hard - they made the future feel achievable instead of dystopian. The reusable rockets and Starlink piece already feel like stepping onto the Enterprise bridge. Which Star Trek era do you think best epitomizes Elon's vision?

"The purpose of @SpaceX is that we want to make Star Trek real. We want to make Starfleet Academy real, so that it's not always science fiction” @ElonMusk

@ashaestro Just curious, did you watch the video? Do you think grok watched it too?

@d2fl Agree 👍

Have you ever had an epiphany? On the way to collect the trash cans today it suddenly hit me. Talking about X is not the winning strategy it used to be. Something has changed. Do you agree? 👍

@deeptrance Some articles, like mine, are reference articles and meant to be returned to every now and then. By summary might lead to more bookmarks.

What a wonderful idea! Encouraging people to write longer thoughtful articles so that they can summarise them to read in 12 seconds. There must be some sense to this but I can't think what it is. Just encourage people to write brief articles? You could also point them to a blog where they can read the whole article ! So funny.

This will be a great addition. I have a lot of articles in my bookmarks to read. This will help me concentrate on the good ones.

@Ladylaw31256058 Donna and I were hoping it wouldn't be him. It's sad. Students have to be very careful when they're traveling to Europe these days, or anywhere actually.

Very sad. I had hoped for better. 😔 Remains of Jimmy Gracey recovered, University of Alabama student missing in Barcelona foxnews.com/live-news/miss…

@MAGAcrusader999 In reality, it just means it took a day for the algorithm to match the post with your current state. This happens often, especially for posts that don't get an immediate push.

It's because the algorithm thinks you want to see the past or some shit! THE ALGORITHM'S STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@elonmusk Sure. Give a one month free trial to all Premium+ subscribers.

Try Grok 4.20 Heavy

@SilentSt0rmX Just to add some more fuel to the fire, the more you complain about it, the worse it gets. Excessive posting about X mechanics will flag your account. Since my account is entirely about X mechanics, I am very familiar with the issue.

Almost every post I’ve seen today is people bitching about impressions. Some of y’all just need to find a better way to make money.
