Billionaire Tesla and X owner Elon Musk has announced a major overhaul of the platform’s algorithm, stating that its recommendation system will soon rely entirely on artificial intelligence powered by Grok.
Musk revealed this in a post on Thursday, explaining that the new system will “remove all heuristics within four to six weeks” and will rely solely on Grok to determine what users see in their feeds.
A verified Explaining further that, “If you post a simple link with no words, the algorithm doesn’t have much to judge, so it won’t show it to many people. But if you add a good headline, an image, or more context, it spreads more.”
Meanwhile, musk republished DogeDesigner’s post adds: “Grok will literally read every post and watch every video (over 100 million per day) to connect users with content they are likely to find interesting.
The billionaire added that the update aims to address what he described as “the new user or small account problem, where you post something great, but no one sees it.”
He also revealed plans to introduce a feature that would allow users to adjust their feeds by asking Grok directly, either temporarily or permanently.
Musk emphasized that the main goal of the system is to ensure that users receive the most relevant and engaging content, and said the changes mark a rapid evolution in Google’s recommendation technology.
In another post on X, DogeDesigner expressed in points the recommendations that Musk clarified about the algorithm powered by Grok. “Posts with bare links or little context will have weaker distribution, and posts with strong, interesting descriptions or images will get better visibility. The system’s only goal is to show users the most relevant and engaging content.”
