Elon Musk, the magnate owner of Twitter, has launched a veiled lawsuit threat against Microsoft for its illegal use of the social network’s database to train its artificial intelligence model, after the Redmond giant reported that the microblogging app will not be available through its advertising platform.
“As of April 25, 2023, Smart Campaigns with cross-platform will no longer be compatible with Twitter,” Microsoft announced, to which Musk responded through his Twitter profile with a brief “they illegally trained using Twitter data.” the demand”.
In this sense, the businessman defended that “stealing the Twitter database, demonetizing it (removing ads) and then selling the data to others is not a winning solution”, although he assured that he was “open to ideas”.
Last December, Musk also starred in a scuffle on the social network regarding the possible removal of Twitter from the Apple App Store and the withdrawal of advertising from the Cupertino multinational, which he finally said he had resolved after a meeting with Tim Cook.
