Elon Musk says he's bringing back Vine in AI form. Here's what that could mean
Briefly

Elon Musk announced on X that he plans to bring back Vine, but in an AI format. Reactions from users were mixed, with some expressing disinterest while others were intrigued by the potential of AI. Vine, which peaked with 200 million active users, significantly influenced short-form video culture and had a lasting impact on platforms like TikTok. Originally acquired by X in 2012 and shut down in 2017, Vine's legacy remains significant as a precursor to modern short-video trends. Musk has recently reiterated interest in reviving the platform, receiving favorable responses from the public.
"We're bringing back Vine, but in AI form," Musk announced on X on Thursday. He did not elaborate further on his plans.
Reactions to the news were mixed. One X user commented: "Worst combination of words I've ever seen." Another added: "No one wants this." Others, however, were more open to the idea.
Before TikTok, there was Vine. At its peak, the app boasted 200 million active users and introduced the culture to classics like " and they were roommates" and "hurricane tortilla."
Musk, who bought Twitter in 2022 and renamed it X, has long been vocal about potentially reviving the platform.
