On June 18, Elon Musk (Elon Musk) said at the VivaTech conference in Paris, France that he bought Twitter because the social network had a "corrosive impact" on civil society, and he wanted to improve that impact.

Musk spoke in front of about 4000 attendees at the VivaTech conference. "my hope is to change Twitter and let it have a positive impact on civilization," he said. "

Musk added that he believes most of Twitter's regular users have seen an improvement in their experience on the site.

Musk is also optimistic about the ability of Twitter's new chief executive, Linda Yaccarino, to attract advertisers. Twitter usage is at an all-time high, he said, and "almost all advertisers say they have either returned or are about to return."

Since Musk took over, advertisers have fled Twitter because they fear their ads will appear next to inappropriate content. Mr Musk said in March that Twitter's advertising revenue had fallen by 50 per cent since October. Twitter recently lost two executives who are responsible for ensuring that the site censors violence, hate speech, pornography and other content that companies do not want to promote their products on its site.

Musk hired Akarino, a former advertising executive at NBC Global, to help improve the relationship between Twitter and the brand. He said she would "handle advertisers' concerns about posting ads on Twitter."

However, Musk is still bitter about spending 44 billion dollars to buy Twitter. "if I'm smart enough, why should I spend so much money on Twitter?" he joked.

Musk said in an interview that he used the platform to reiterate his attitude towards artificial intelligence, that it could be dangerous to allow artificial intelligence to develop out of control.

"Digital super intelligence is in great danger of having a negative impact," Mr Musk said. if we accidentally create universal artificial intelligence, we could face disastrous consequences. "

While Musk called artificial intelligence the "most disruptive" technology in history, which could have many positive effects, he also stressed that the technology was "definitely a risk to the public" and should be regulated.

Musk also predicts that his brain-computer interface company, Neuralink, will have its first human implant later this year. Last month, Neuralink said it had received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to conduct human clinical trials. Musk had previously complained of slow progress and said his goal was to help paralyzed patients recover their full-body function.

Mr Musk had also met with French President Emmanuel Macron, who had lobbied Mr Musk to build a factory in France. Mr Macron said before the meeting that he wanted to discuss with Mr Musk the regulatory framework for artificial intelligence, social media and social networks.
