Billionaire Brawl Alert: Musk vs Zuckerberg, Who Will Reign Supreme in the Octagon?
Who else had this on their 2023 bingo card? In the midst of a global cost of living crisis, two tech titans have presented us with an unexpected yet entertaining proposition: a cage fight. Elon Musk, the audacious CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, has indirectly challenged Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg to a cage fight. And funnily enough, Zuckerberg seems to be down for the challenge. This playful feud started on Twitter, where Musk has been taunting Zuckerberg with zingers like “Zuck my 👅.” During an internal all-hands meeting at Meta last week, chief product officer Chris Cox told employees the company thinks creators want a version of Twitter that is “sanely run,” drawing cheers. In a recent podcast interview with Lex Fridman, Zuckerberg added, “I’ve always thought that Twitter should have a billion people using it.” which felt like a pointed jab.
