Musk admitted that he made a mistake in the early days of joining Twitter: forgive more, but he will make fewer mistakes in the future.

On the morning of December 29, Beijing time, it was reported that Elon Musk's entry into Twitter had brought upheaval to the social media company, sometimes triggering a strong internal reaction, but the billionaire seemed to blame it on growing pains.

"at first, we obviously made a lot of mistakes. After all, I'm new here-Hey, I'm new here. Forgive me a lot." "I think I will make fewer mistakes in the future," he said on a "All-In" podcast.

In addition to the massive layoffs that have plagued Twitter, Musk has suspended new features such as paid authentication and even reduced the number of employees responsible for monitoring bad content. He also recently blocked the accounts of a number of journalists and drew widespread criticism.

Investor David Friedberg (David Friedberg), one of the hosts of the show, referred to the controversy surrounding "product iterations" and "negative feedback from acting quickly in the absence of communication".

Musk used baseball as an analogy, telling Friedberg: "We're going to hit a home run in the Twitter, and we have to do it as soon as possible," even if we want to strike out by 1.3 more.

Musk also defended the "read volume" feature launched by Twitter this month, which shows how many people have seen a tweet. Many users criticized the feature for messing up the interface, but Musk said the volume function was "much more difficult to implement than you think".

Musk also admitted that there are still many robots in the Twitter system, but since he took over, he has "taken a lot of measures to reduce robots and sprinklers."

Friedberg also mentioned Musk's influence on the technology company CEO, which made them fascinated by not being bound by the board of directors. Mr Musk seems to admit that absolute power may involve some risks.

"I think I'm lucky in a sense. I don't have to answer questions. It won't be public. We don't have a board." "I can take some extreme actions," he said. "obviously, if I make a lot of mistakes, Twitter will not succeed, which will be embarrassing and sad."

To allay his worries, he used baseball as a comparison again: "as long as the batting rate is good."... there's no difference in the future. "
