Although Tesla's chief executive, Elon Musk, bought Twitter for $44 billion last October, he seems to be persuading people to spend less time using social media, according to news on January 13.

"the tendency to be anti-social is making people more lonely," a Twitter user tweeted on Thursday local time. " Musk responded: "maybe we should spend less time using social media?" Mr Musk did not immediately respond to a request for further comment.

Musk's users cited a 2021 study by the American Life Research Center, which found that people's social circle has shrunk over the past 30 years, with male friends shrinking more significantly.

Musk himself is an avid Twitter user. He responded on Twitter shortly after 1 a. M. on Thursday. After 01:30 in the morning, he replied again. Around 9: 00 in the morning, he began to post a large number of tweets.

An analysis in November 2022 found that Musk tweeted an average of once an hour in the three weeks after buying Twitter. Analysis shows that after the acquisition of the social media platform, Musk posted more tweets (including replies and retweets), after replying to posts from other users most of the time.

Last year, Musk said in an interview that he wanted to get rid of the bad habit of checking his phone early in the morning. "I need to exercise to stay in better shape," he said. So I got out of the habit of checking my phone as soon as I woke up and didn't pick up my phone until at least 20 minutes of exercise. " It is not clear whether Musk is sticking to his resolve.

At the same time, Musk has once again tightened his grip on Twitter, and it is said that all product improvements must be approved in person. Musk has sent a letter to Twitter employees saying that he has completed most of Tesla's work this week and is free to discuss Twitter's product needs. "We will struggle until we launch a product as close to perfection as possible," he said in an email. "

Musk also told employees in an email that the meeting should focus on "urgent product decision-making, project progress, and legal, financial and human resources."
