According to U.Today, Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk recently shared an April Fool's tweet, joking about joining Disney as their Chief DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) Officer. In the tweet, Musk mentioned working with Bob Iger and Kathleen Kennedy to make Disney content 'MORE woke.' The tweet received a humorous response from the cryptocurrency community, who supported the joke with memes and comments.
Musk has been known to criticize DEI policies in the past, and last year, he had a conflict with Disney CEO Bob Iger when Disney advertisements were withdrawn from Twitter/X. Musk publicly told CNBC that he would not be blackmailed by Iger or anyone else with money or advertising.
In other news, Elon Musk announced the upcoming release of Grok AI 1.5, a new iteration of his AI chatbot developed by his recent venture, xAI. The updated version is set to go live on the X platform this week for Premium+ users. Musk also mentioned that the Grok 2 version should 'exceed current AI on all metrics' once it is released. The new version of the AI bot is currently being trained, but it is unclear whether Musk was referring to the earlier Grok version or ChatGPT and similar AI language models.
