Musk posted last night that the platform’s algorithm will soon “promote more informational/entertaining content” in order to “maximize unregretted user-seconds.” In response to Musk changing the X algorithm, people asked Grok what is considered “negative” and were told as reported by user Leah McElrath:

• Commentary about misinformation

• Suggestion the public is being manipulated

• Attacks against powerful people or institutions
