Would you invest in Twitter now? (If you could)

A great hypothetical question I was thinking about this morning is: would I invest in Elon’s Twitter if I could? This comes after nearly six months from Elon Musk’s $44 billion tech-giant takeover.

Elon Musk has stated that he plans to take Twitter public again after three to five years. So, would you invest in Twitter if you could?

Twitter’s purge

First things first, let’s take a look at what Elon has been working on since acquiring Twitter.

If you’ve been following Musk’s tweets, he’s been claiming that Twitter’s ‘algorithm’ or the code that selects which tweets people see, is propping up certain political ideologies.

In my personal opinion, I’m still seeing hardcore left-wing ideology in my feeds. Perhaps it really is how people are aligning. Or maybe Elon’s claims about the wonky algorithm from his predecessors is true.

Either way, he’s identified an issue. He’s been transparent about it. And he’s claimed that he’ll stay on as Twitter CEO through 2023.

In fairness, it seems like users are reporting positive feedback about their experience in the roughly six months post acquisition.

How AI will impact Twitter

Another hot topic of late has been the rollout of ChatGPT, a super code which generates content. If you haven’t tried it yet, I suggest giving it an in-depth look to examine its strengths and weaknesses.

But how does ChatGPT relate to Twitter? Well for one, Elon’s justified paranoia about a large number of bots on the platform, could turn into a full-blown epidemic with AI content.

ChatGPT, while still in its infancy (its knowledge database only runs through 2021), has been shown have its own political ideology. And surprise, it’s left leaning.

However, Elon has been publicly critical about ChatGPT, and even hinted that Tesla AI is far superior to what’s currently being offered.

Whether you agree with Elon’s right-leaning philosophies or not, it’s hard to not like his transparency. How many global leaders like himself are so open about their view points? And aren’t compromised by donors and lobbyists.

That’s why I personally would invest in Twitter if they ever take it public again.

It’s similar to how Musk’s EV company, Tesla, was viciously attacked and experienced a massive decline in the stock market after his purchase of Twitter.

The media want to push the narrative that Musk is some crazy tech bro that wants to be an authoritarian. Can you say, projection?

But Elon’s Twitter seems like a long-term play. He’s playing chess and rarely does he make a wrong move on the board.

For Musk, I urge him to keep on fighting. Social media should be a free (and safe) place where people express their viewpoints. Right or left doesn’t matter. Good ideas that benefit the masses do.

And Elon seems to strike perfect balance.
