Elon Musk and Sam Altman have had heated exchanges multiple times over the past years on social media. But now things have started easing between the two. At least their latest interaction suggests so. It began with the Tesla CEO’s recent reaction to computer scientist Paul Graham’s 2016 tweet about Altman.
“Few have done more than Sam Altman to defeat Trump,” the original post read, to which the OpenAI CEO commented, “Thank you, Paul.”
Resharing the post as well as Altman’s comment on his official X handle, Musk added cryptic emojis, sparking yet another reaction from the former. Sharing an old report from The Guardian with the headline “Elon Musk hits back at Trump and says ex-president should hang up his hat,” Altman wrote, “We were both wrong, or at least I certainly was, but that was from 2016, and this was from 2022.”

Last but not least, the billionaire businessman was seen waving a white flag, suggesting that he doesn’t want to escalate their rift. “Anyway, see you next week; let’s be friends. Agi is too important to let a little feud get in the way,” he wrote in another comment. It seems like the old rivals will meet up soon.

Elon Musk is yet to react to the comments by Sam Altman. This is not the first time that the Tesla CEO has brought up an old post. Previously, he responded to a post where Altman stated he would never vote for Donald Trump.
Earlier in April, Altman went on to call X a “negative platform.” In response to an X user’s post on the Ghibli trend, which read, “After a long time, I see positivity on X because of people sharing cute images of their family and loved ones. Thanks, Sam,”
Altman took to the comment section and added, “This is generally a quite negative platform, so I am happy we were able to bring some joy temporarily.”
It is worth mentioning that Musk has turned into a close ally of President Trump and was even given the charge of running the US government’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
