> Before the AI craze, Musk chopped an awful lot of headcount at Twitter, right, and proved it was overkill, has that panned out?
He basically killed the Twitter as a business. The only lesson here is that it is really hard to fail having infinite money.
Killed? Twitter's AI/datacenter business is practically the only thing propping up SpaceX's valuation now, per their S-1 filing!
Yes, that is a completely new business which has OpenAI, Anthropic and Google as competitors.
While Twitters competitors were Facebook, Reddit, Pinterest, Tumblr and Mastodon.
