 <p>The company did not offer specific details on the payment process or an expected date for launch. However, Musk has previously confirmed that he is seeking a mid-2024 launch date for the feature. In July, Musk stated the desire for X to encompass a user’s “entire financial world.” Subsequently, peer-to-peer payments are a massive step in that direction. </p> 
 <p>Additionally, the post noted its continued use of artificial intelligence to help its functionality. Moreover, the post states that <a rel="dofollow" title="Category Features" href="https://thebittimes.com/features.html">Features</a> like user advertising experience, and the See Similar Post feature will receive AI enhancements. Alongside these updates will be a greater investment in content creation, with a focus on “more original content” for the platform. </p>
