Photo by MANDEL NGANAFP via An upcoming White House event on AI will feature some of Silicon Valleys 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.
Thats according to The Hill, which reported on Wednesday that, in addition to Zuck, Cook, and Gates, OpenAI founder Sam Altman, Musks avowed enemy, has also been invited. Musk, however, claims that he was, in fact, invited to the event, but it just didnt 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.
Its unclear who this representative is. Gizmodo reached out for more information.
