Why It Matters: The tweet appears to be in response to Zuckerberg’s recent remarks about Apple’s rejection of an AI partnership on iPhone deals. Zuckerberg had stated, "They wanted to put us in a box because they view us as competitive."
Apple had reportedly rejected Meta's AI partnership proposal over privacy concerns.
Musk’s agreement with Zuckerberg’s critique comes shortly after the successful initiation of the training of the Memphis Supercluster, touted as the “most powerful AI training cluster in the world,” by Musk’s AI startup, xAI, and Nvidia Corp.
