Vitalik: Open-sourcing the X platform algorithm is a very good move. Algorithms need to be verifiable and reproducible.

According to Mars Finance, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin commented on Elon Musk's statement that he will open-source the new X platform algorithm within seven days, including how it determines search content to recommend to users, a process that will be repeated every four weeks: "If done properly, this would be a very good move. I hope it can be verified and reproduced. While this won't solve all the problems, it would very effectively address the concerns I and many other public members have raised about the transparency of the algorithm." He added, "Furthermore, I actually think four weeks might be a bit too optimistic, as it means the algorithm needs frequent updates to prevent loopholes. The algorithm really needs to be verifiable and reproducible so that users who feel they have been blocked, downgraded, etc., can view the algorithm's execution code and understand why their posts are not being viewed."
