He got his career started in software but my overall impression from Ashlee Vance's book, news reports about Tesla, etc is that Elon just doesn't have the same good judgement in software that he does in engineering. I mean, he's smart and hard working and could iterate features fast but that's different from sustainable software engineering. And Twitter isn't really about software at his level, it's more organization where I also don't think he has an unusual talent. He is a heavy user of the platform, though, unlike the people who had been running it and it's possible that will give him better judgement over which features matter.
