>Sam is just one of the few large company CEOs to tweet in the style other Twitter users usually use. Just looked at the algorithmic feed on Twitter to makes sure trends haven't shifted overnight, and zero people in that sample of hundreds of tweets used all lower case in the tweets. Not in science. Not in AI. Not in maths or politics or entertainment or media. Sam is trying to bE dIFFERENT. He isn't adopting a norm but instead he's trying to make one. It looks ridiculous. | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Most people on my feed do. It's true that professionals, executives, and public intellectuals generally don't use lowercase and that Sam is trying to normalize that, but my main point was that the medium matters. Lowercase looks ridiculous for longform essays and normal for short messages and microblog posts. | |||||||||||||||||||||||

> Not in science. Not in AI. Not in maths or politics or entertainment or media. That is the professional Twitter class and is not at all representative of the norm. Click through to the replies. Sentence case is probably in the vast minority. I promise you that it is neither a fad nor started with the AI bro. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
