Elon Musk has touted Twitter’s paid Blue subscription plan as providing users with additional benefits while helping to prevent AI bots from taking over the platform.
In a March 27 Twitter post, Musk said users will now need a “verified account” if they want to be eligible to vote in polls or be recommended on the platform’s “For You” page, which displays a stream of tweets from accounts on Twitter, including those that users don’t necessarily follow.
