Elon Musk acknowledges making errors in his first six weeks as Twitter’s owner: Hey, guy, I just arrived

We’ll make, obviously, a lot more mistakes in the beginning because I’m new to u2014 Hey, I just got here, dude. He predicted that there will be fewer mistakes in the future.Along with the major layoffs (which are now the focus of current lawsuits), Musk also stopped the rollout of new services like paid verification and retracted staff members who were watching out for troubling content on the website. He has received criticism most recently for temporarily suspending the accounts of many journalists.Investor David Friedberg, one of the hosts of the programme, made reference to the debate around product iteration, which is the evolution of a feature or product in development, and mentioned some of the public’s negative criticism about rapid action without communication.We’re going to swing for the fences here at Twitter, and we’re going to do it quickly, Musk said, using a baseball metaphor, even if it means having to strike out a bit more.

It was a lot tougher to build the functionality than you’d assume, he claimed.Despite claiming to have taken a lot of efforts to lessen the bots and troll issue, Musk conceded that Twitter still has a substantial number of bots in the system and that this was one of the reasons he tried to back out of purchasing the site.Friedberg also brought up Musk’s cultural impact on tech colleagues who are drawn to a solo leadership style unrestricted by a board, a subject Business Insider’s Melia Russell recently highlighted. Musk seems to accept that the absolute power could carry some risks.It’s not public, and we don’t really have a board, so I think I’m in a fortunate situation where I don’t have to respond, he added. I am capable of making dramatic decisions. Furthermore, it goes without saying that if I commit a lot of errors, Twitter won’t be successful, which would be both sad and embarrassing.He once more turned to baseball to upbeat that diagnosis. It will be a terrific future as long as the batting average is good.Share your thoughts with us in the comments
