A new tweet by Twitter owner Elon Musk suggests the company is preparing to open source its algorithm as soon as next week — unless, of course, it’s all a joke. (One never knows these days!) However, Musk has been a longtime proponent of the idea that Twitter’s recommendation algorithm should be open sourced, having repeatedly stated that belief even before he took the helm of the social network and again when announcing his intention to acquire Twitter in April 2022.

In response to a tweet today that urged him to open source Twitter, Musk remarked “prepare to be disappointed at first when our algorithm is made open source next week,” then noting that “it will improve rapidly.”
