Elon's X Makes Links Less Ghostly But Stalked By AI
On October 19, 2025, X finally admitted that losing followers after a linked detour on iOS was as predictable as a botched Tesla launch. Instead of letting web browsers hijack your screen like an overzealous Uber driver going rogue, X now pins your original post to the bottom ā because apparently, scrolling through links shouldnāt mean ditching Daddy Muskās space monkey circus. Meanwhile, Elon Musk, in a move that screams 'Big Brother is watching your memes,' promised to axe 'all heuristics' in 4-6 weeks and unleash Grok, their AI brain that devours 100M+ posts and videos daily to stalk you with surgical precision, ensuring no like or reply escapes its reach.

Xās new iOS tweak keeps your post visible so you don't run away after clicking a link, because Muskās AI Grok needs you on the leash watching 100M posts daily or it gets lonely.
Xās idea of fun is trapping you between a link and an AI wasting time on a 'recommendation system' reboot that sounds suspiciously like algorithmic hypnosis.
Elonās AI Grok reading every post on X is basically the social media equivalent of your mom reading your diaryāexcept it never blinks and definitely judges your memes.
