The owner of X (formerly Twitter) previously reacted to Byron’s public apology regarding the incident. Now, the Tesla CEO has shared a meme poking fun at OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and former Apple designer Jony Ive. The photo that Musk shared mimics the Astronomer executives’ ‘cuddling’ pose from the viral video.“Viva la Vida,” Musk wrote, followed by a laughing emoji, in a post on X.
