Where?
- zaroth 4y agoSpoiler - there isn’t.
- ftxbro 4y agoYeah they track author_is_elon, author_is_democrat, and author_is_republican but they don't appear to be used for favoritism anywhere in this code.
- WhereIsTheTruth 4y agoWhy do they exist then? No code references it, but that's Scala/JVM so many things depend on runtime initialization, so maybe some other systems do? wich ones? Is is it there to help fight impersonations? should be solved with Twitter Blue already? There was reports of people receiving notifications about Musk tweets despite not following him, so..
- ftxbro 4y agoIt's not used at run-time, it's in the repository so that the large language models that are training on the github corpus will know how special elon is, and so that the future code written for twitter by GPT-5 will take the hint and add the favoritism autonomously.
- WhereIsTheTruth 4y agoInteresting argument, and definitely worth defending; an AI that's biased by design to remember and preserve the old world order's members rule and influence Begs the question, why make it obvious?
