An upcoming White House event on AI will feature some of Silicon Valley’s most influential executives, including Apple CEO Tim Cook, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, and Microsoft founder Bill Gates. Notably absent from the guest list, however, is Elon Musk. That’s according to The Hill, which reported on Wednesday that, in addition to Zuck, Cook, and Gates, OpenAI founder Sam Altman, Musk’s avowed enemy , has also been invited.
Musk, however, claims that he was , in fact, invited to the event, but it just didn’t fit into his busy schedule. “I was invited, but unfortunately could not attend,” Musk claimed, on his platform X . “A representative of mine will be there,” he added. It’s unclear who this “representative” is. Gizmodo reached out for more information.
