Trolling Gates?
Musk appeared to troll Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates over the massive IT outage that rocked the world a few days ago. In the video, Gates was seen holding a banner titled, “runaway of power.” In a blog post on Saturday, Microsoft said a global tech outage that was related to a software update by cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike affected nearly 8.5 million Microsoft devices.
The video also featured former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in a vibrant Supreme dress, and Apple CEO Tim Cook accessorised with an iPad. Musk’s venture into AI fashion underlined the technology’s evolving role in blending creativity with digital innovation. As the video went viral, garnering over 33 million views in four hours, it sparked a wave of reactions.
This spectacle follows the recent Miss AI competition, where Kenza Layli, an AI-generated model from Morocco, was crowned. The event highlighted AI’s transformative impact on traditional industries like fashion and beauty.
