It’s possible that the enforcement of a rate limit isn’t because of AI scraping, but rather because they failed to migrate before the June 30th deadline.

Sometimes, I wonder if Elon is really smart? Or he's just super dumb and lucky? The things he said and did are plain weird. I have a feeling Twitter will be going down along with Reddit. Funny thing is, I've never had a Twitter account to start with.
He was born rich, bought businesses where other people had done all the heavy thinking already and marketed himself well. Like Trump is a poor persons idea of a rich man, Elon is a dumb person's idea of a smart person.
Wow, thats...thats right...
I like the line of thinking there:
Jordan Peterson is the insane person idea of a sane person.
Alex Jones is the grifter person ideia of a stand up bussines person.
Please continue to add.
After these last nine months, it's become brutally and very publicly clear that this dude was lucky to be born rich. Doesn't seem like it was that long ago that the world thought he was a visionary, but oh well, the truth had to come out eventually.
Yeah I don’t think he’s really terribly intelligent. I do think that he’s a good ideas person perhaps , but he’s also arrogant and lacks the people around him to tell him NO when he has a bad one.
To open the 2013 WWDC Apple said "there are a thousand no's for every yes".’
We lost Steve Jobs and got to keep Musk , doesn’t seem terribly fair lol.
Steve Jobs wasn't all that great either when you read into him
Jobs was an asshole to his colleagues and he made grave mistakes about how to treat his own cancer which led to his death.
But with that being said, he helped make Apple, left Apple to make NeXTSTEP, then when Apple was in the dumps they re-hired him, at which point he turned the ship around and put Apple onto the path to becoming the hegemon it is today. Apple’s well-being appears to have had a clear response to Jobs’s presence. So while he may have been an asshole, but he was at least a functional asshole who got stuff done professionally.
That’s pretty much the exact opposite of what Elon is doing with Twitter.
Lucky enough to have been born rich. He's had a lot of talented people working under him but he, himself, is not that smart and given the past several years, is seeming rather stupid.

To be fair I said ‘perhaps’.
Edit ; I think the Hyperloop is a pretty good idea , the above ground one. And the underground stuff is good too. He just seems to be awful at execution.
I used to work in the railways.
Hyperloop is a stupid idea that doesn't solve any real problems.
hyperloop is so old that in 1829 there was already people poking fun at the concept
