This is a new chapter of Elon Musk and his strange Twitter decisions. This time, the social network’s CEO has declared that Twitter will only show verified accounts on the algorithmic “For You” timeline starting April 15.

In a tweet, Musk justified the move by saying this is the “only realistic way to address advanced AI bot swarms taking over.” While the Tesla CEO suggested that the move to prohibit non-verified accounts from recommendations was to tackle bots, he mentioned that “verified” bots that don’t impersonate humans are eligible to be shown on the “For You” timeline. So essentially you have to be a paid user, a brand, or a government official to be recommended by Twitter’s algorithm.
