Cont: Musk buys Twitter II

it's early, these guys are investing trillions of dollars into making sure ai can be exactly as racist as you want, or pretend to be an entire social media network so you're never lonely. all while finding a way to manipulate you and jam as many ads down your throat as possible. that's the american tech industry. let the chinese develop batteries and robotics.
 
I found an early draft of that tweet by xAI.
Our existing code review process for prompt changes was circumvented in this incident by the company's owner. We will put in place additional checks and measures to ensure that xAI management and employees can't modify the prompt without review.
 
Ideal for the Trump Cabinet.

All new XChat is rolling out with encryption, vanishing messages and the ability to send any kind of file. Also, audio/video calling.
This is built on Rust with (Bitcoin style) encryption, whole new architecture.

He means built with Rust which is a programming language, not an architecture.

And I'm not sure why he means by "Bitcoin style encryption". Bitcoin uses cryptography to sign transactions, not encrypt them. And it uses a fairly standard elliptic curve public key system. This is nothing new. In fact he is describing features that WhatsApp (just one example) has had for ages.
 
it’s because bitcoin tech is magic so anything involving its tech is extra good
 
I mean the architecture of the system the code is running. It could be any langauge but the whole way their chat works has been changed.
Yes, I think this Xchat is actually completely new. I don't think there was a chat in Twitter (could be wrong though). Somebody probably told Musk "it's written in Rust, it uses elliptic curve cryptography similar to Bitcoin's and it's a new architecture" i.e. it's a new system. He's scrambled that in his ketamine fogged brain and ◊◊◊◊ it out as a tweet.
