That's why the piece is cute, it presents some personal fiddling as a possible solution. Twitter can't simply use a competitor's technology at scale, and if they did they would be opening a massive risk vector to their core business. The only takeaway is that Twitter has to replicate the most intelligent "ai" in the world.
