        "summary": "The first tweet on Twitter, posted by co-founder Jack Dorsey on 21 March 2006, marked the beginning of a platform that has since evolved into X under Elon Musk's ownership. This simple message, which sold as an NFT for $2.9 million but later lost value, highlights the platform's transformative journey amid controversies including mass layoffs, antisemitic chatbot responses, and deepfake misuse. Despite competition from rivals like Meta's Threads, which recently surpassed X in daily mobile users, the platform retains significant influence among social media users.",
        "content": "<p>Jakarta (ANTARA) - The first tweet on the social media platform\nTwitter (now X) has turned 20 years old. It all began with Jack Dorsey,\nwho uploaded a simple message: \u201cI am setting up Twitter.\u201d According to\nTechCrunch on Saturday (21\/3) local time, that simple upload ultimately\ncreated a social media platform that has evolved into the current X. The\ntweet was later sold by Jack Dorsey, one of Twitter\u2019s founders, as an\nNFT for $2.9 million USD. However, its value has reportedly plummeted\nbecause it cannot be resold. After all that, Twitter transformed into\nthe platform X, which is now owned by Elon Musk. Since X was acquired by\nElon Musk, drastic employee cuts have taken place, sparking controversy.\nThe platform has invited further controversies after being equipped with\nthe Grok chatbot from xAI, which displayed antisemitic responses and was\nused to create sexual deepfakes victimising and depicting real women and\nchildren. Currently, X still holds strong influence among certain social\nmedia user groups, just as it did when it was called Twitter, but\nindustry competition is inevitable, such as with Bluesky and Meta\u2019s\nThreads. This is also evident in a recent report showing that Threads\nhas surpassed X in the number of daily mobile users.<\/p>",
