Elon Musk's Controversial Remarks and Actions in Tech Industry

Elon Musk mocked Vice President Kamala Harris' appointment as the White House's "AI czar" on Twitter, suggesting that someone who can fix their own WiFi router would be a better fit for the role. Musk also suggested that the Biden administration could select AI experts like Geoffrey Hinton to lead AI regulation. Harris and President Biden recently met with AI CEOs, including the heads of Google and Microsoft, to discuss AI regulation and safety.
