- Elon Musk wants to combine Twitter and Grok, his AI engine, and create a news machine.
- But Grok won't look for "news" — it will look for "things people are saying on Twitter about news."
- There's several problems with this approach! But it may be the future, regardless.
What do you think of when you think of "news?"
I'm both old and in the news business. So when I think of "news," it's usually like something that comes from an organization that specializes in distributing and sometimes sourcing/verifying facts about current events. You know: like a newspaper or a website or TV show/network.
