Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, recently made an exciting announcement about the platform X (formerly known as Twitter). Subscribers now have the option to upload podcasts, TV shows, or movies and monetize their content.

In a response to his sister Tosca Musk, co-founder of the streaming service Passionflix, Elon highlighted that users can now upload their full-length films to X. He encouraged creators to share their TV shows, movies, or podcasts on the platform and start earning from subscriptions.This move, announced by Musk himself, aims to transform X into a multi-faceted content platform, rivaling established streaming giants like Netflix.

Tosca expressed her joy at the prospect of people watching her movies on X. Additionally, a user suggested that X should allow films to be posted with a one-time fee, giving viewers the option to buy the movie without a subscription. This proposal was seen as a potential transformation for X into a true movie platform. Some users also suggested necessary improvements for streaming on the platform.

Elon further informed his followers about an upcoming feature called ‘AI Audiences.’ This feature will enable advertisers to describe their target audience, and AI systems will generate a pool of the most relevant X users to target within seconds.

Following Musk's announcement, several social media users flooded the comment section with their reactions. One user wrote, Twitter is the new Netflix. Another commented, So cool! Thanks for making this possible! Another user humorously coined the term Tweetube.

Musk, who acquired Twitter for USD 44 billion, will continue to maintain a firm grip on the company, focusing on product design and new technology. He recently announced an update allowing verified users early access to an encrypted messaging service.With the introduction of monetization features and AI-powered tools, X is poised to become a formidable player in the content streaming landscape, offering creators and viewers an unprecedented level of engagement and opportunity.
