I don’t have the expertise to say but I think it is the most likely scenario.

Managing networks of hundreds of millions of people is impossible, especially with how nuanced the English language is. It would be a massive liability.

They would have to have a very restrictive and isolated version of a platform that wouldn’t even accept different words, phrases, and the problem is even harder with images and videos so those would probably be gone too.

Not an expert by any means just my two cents. From my understanding, it’s incredibly hard to police everything internally and AI moderation just isn’t where it needs to be. If a company is held liable for what end users do with their product or service, they will stop providing it.

Exactly. Musk is going to have to do better or it's going to fail. The whole world is watching and it's not looking good.

I think it will work out but maybe not at the scale he is hoping. Meaning sports betting apps will advertise happily but maybe not companies like Disney.

I agree though, it will be interesting to see in ten years.

That's a substantial amount of time that will come quickly
