In the blog post, Zuckerberg criticized closed model providers for lobbying against open source. In response to the user, Musk said, “+1 for Zuck,” suggesting his agreement with the Facebook founder’s stance.

However, Musk’s support for Zuckerberg’s stance comes after a series of public criticisms against ChatGPT-parent OpenAI, an AI organization he co-founded with Sam Altman and others in 2015.

Musk has repeatedly expressed dissatisfaction with OpenAI’s transition from a non-profit, open-source model to a profit-oriented, closed-source structure.

Previously, Meta’s Chief AI Scientist, Yann LeCun, also expressed disagreement with OpenAI’s early investor, Vinod Khosla, over his support for closed-source AI.
