X to Release Algorithm Code Publicly Amid Regulatory Scrutiny

X, formerly Twitter, will make its recommendation algorithm code public within seven days, with updates and developer notes to follow every four weeks, announced owner Elon Musk. This move comes amid increased scrutiny from European regulators regarding transparency, content moderation, and concerns over AI-generated misinformation, including a recent 140 million euro fine. The platform has faced investigations into algorithmic bias and data extraction, with Musk stating the goal is to maximize user engagement by showing interesting content.
