I couldn't find a working archive link for the ft.com article - anyone? Since it's the original source I've left it up, but added other URLs to the toptext.
I sent it to archive.ph here: https://archive.ph/rP4cb and it has the content but the formatting is atrocious. HTH.

He is re-building a company that he himself built less than 3 years ago?

Edit: before someone pounces, no, I'm in no way defending either E. Just trying to hold up HN.
Feel like the canary was when Grokpedia became a project. Giant waste of time while Anthropic/OAI keep surging forward. I also keep hearing this narrative that Twitter is a good data source, but I cannot imagine it's a valuable dataset. Sure keeping up with realtime topics can be useful, but I am not sure how much of a product that is.
It’s pretty telling that Elon had to have Grok rewrite Wikipedia because the truth was too woke for him. No idea how anybody can ever take Grok seriously.

It's going to be a mixed batch, but any time there's world events, since as far back as I can think, Twitter (now X) was always first in breaking news. There's plenty of people and news orgs still on X because they need to be for the audience.

tbh I wouldn't give Elon a dime even if Grok was miles better than competition.
Ok, but please don't post unsubstantive comments here.
Elon's persona caused massive drops in usage of twitter, sales of Tesla, etc.
Unsurprisingly many would not touch grok for the same distrust.

Twitter's communication style being based around brevity, slang, memes, spam and non-threaded conversations seems particularly unlikely to be helpful for optimising LLMs
Is this still true? Every once in a while someone sends a link around to some madman explaining how race or economics or whatever "really" works and it's like a full dissertation with headings, footnotes, clip art. They're halfway to reinventing Grok-o-pedia right there in Twitter. I mean X. I was promised that "X gonna give it to you" but it turns out "it" is some form of brain chlymidia.

Not even Elon believes that Cursor is worth $50B or even $29B.
How can cursor be worth more than a few billion? Claude/Codex are already better autonomous SWE-lite replacements. Cognition surely has a better internal harness. Cursor does have a lot of users, I'll give it that.
