Elon Musk says X’s codebase will be made open source.

Along with his usual morning tweets in support of right-wing politics, against certain immigrants to the US, and boosting data centers, the sometimes-trillionaire writes, “Once we have completed our review for security vulnerabilities, we will make the entire codebase of 𝒛 open source, with no exceptions.” (He didn’t mention how Grok Build had apparently made exposing your code a little too easy.)

Elon Musk says X’s codebase will be made open source.

TL;DR

  • X's entire codebase will be made open source.
  • This will occur after a review for security vulnerabilities.
  • Elon Musk stated there will be no exceptions to the open-sourcing.
  • He also commented on the platform's algorithm, which can cause content overload.
  • The algorithm may show too much similar content based on few likes.
