To save money, Musk has taken action on the Twitter translation function.

Thank you, CTOnews.com netizens. Hello, rabbit, rain and snow clues delivery! On June 2, CTOnews.com, Musk laid out a series of controversial policies after taking the helm of Twitter. These include massive layoffs, a big push on Twitter Blue subscription services, and a 200x increase in the price of external API interfaces to reduce Twitter spending. Recently, there are rumors that Musk may have cut off the automatic translation function of Twitter.

▲ Picture Source Twitter according to foreign media Piunika, the latest version of Twitter seems to be removing the automatic translation function in grayscale, and many users report that the "translate" button disappears when viewing other people's tweets. However, some users said that their translation function can still work. Twitter only gave a vague explanation, saying that "our team is aware of this, and if we find any problems, we will contact you."

As of today, foreign media Piunika has released an update saying that "Twitter has cut down the translation function", so "users can only manually copy the text of the tweet and use third-party tools to translate it."

▲ source PiunikaCTOnews.com has learned that Twitter's previous automatic translation calls Google Translation API, so Twitter has to pay a fee to Google every time Twitter users use the translation function. Considering that Musk had previously defaulted on suppliers and landlords in order to reduce Twitter expenses, and swung a big stick at scholars who used Twitter data for research.

Today, IT House just reported that "Ella Irwin, head of trust and security for Twitter, announced his resignation only six months after taking office," while data from Fidelity Investments on the 31st of last month showed that Twitter is now worth only 33% of what it was when Musk bought it.
