Elon Musk has shared some latest updates that Twitter will undergo in a tweet.

Twitter chief announced that the company will open source all code used to recommend tweets.

[{"selector":"#anim-f872637e-dad9-405d-9a21-fdd44a84331d","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-94.68085%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-2926bb2f-4bc1-4819-83d6-8b215e053e3f","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-5267e6db-2ddc-4834-9e45-ad1c5d1759d5","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Twitter will open source all code used to recommend tweets on March 31st, Musk tweeted.

[{"selector":"#anim-ddb80c0a-e203-4690-aab4-dbbf5ff088da","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-89.49671%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-b67d688d-aa5e-474b-a003-23f65d6001ac","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-7e7cb650-a471-489c-b5b8-c7c43b1f389a","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Musk said that the recommendation algorithm used at Twitter is overly complicated and not fully understood inside the company.

[{"selector":"#anim-d187e408-2150-4fa9-8603-7520ba672b79","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-84.6%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-443c122f-4092-4d62-9247-2c0c2ee94f1c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d3efc58d-83e0-42d3-8958-aeaa15e9abc5","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

"People will discover many silly things, but we'll patch issues as soon as they're found!" Musk said in another tweet.

[{"selector":"#anim-e7983f6c-d260-4817-89a6-80b1fdb19efa","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-88.86463%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-48be03c3-d86b-4de3-a206-bb0ee4573f81","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-bf4f85b9-c2c1-462e-9284-c13335090690","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Musk said that providing code transparency will be incredibly embarrassing at first, but it should lead to rapid improvement in recommendation quality.
