Tesla Inc CEO Elon Musk agreed with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/08/33747464/musk-vs-zuckerberg-fight-epic-cage-match-to-be-set-in-ancient-italian-venue-and-streamed-live-on-x-a">his arch-rival</a> Mark Zuckerberg&#8217;s critique of Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), raising questions about the tech giant&#8217;s ability to maintain its position amid growing hostilities.
What Happened: On Tuesday, Musk took to X, formerly Twitter, to express his agreement with Zuckerberg&#8217;s recent comments about Apple. Responding to a user who said Tim Cook-led Apple is making too many enemies, Musk said he's doing something similar, too.
&#8220;I think the same thing about myself tbh,&#8221; Musk said.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">I think the same thing about myself tbh
&mdash; Elon Musk (@elonmusk) <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1815935650371076590?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 24, 2024</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Musk, like Apple, has been at the center of controversies, ranging from his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39323339/tesla-shareholders-approve-elon-musk-56b-pay-package-other-company-proposals">$56 billion pay package</a> as Tesla Inc. CEO to his ownership of X and the ensuing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/38012210/elon-musk-slams-mark-zuckerbergs-meta-for-falsely-taking-credit-for-x-sales-after-facebook-instagram">battle with advertisers</a> on the social media platform.
Subscribe to the&nbsp;<a href="https://bztechtrends.beehiiv.com/subscribe" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Tech Trends newsletter</a>&nbsp;to get all the latest tech developments delivered to your inbox.
This surprising alignment comes despite Musk&#8217;s history of disagreements with the Facebook co-founder, including a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/08/33699214/elon-musk-thinks-an-unconventional-cage-match-debate-with-zuckerberg-is-a-good-idea">challenge to a cage match</a> over Zuckerberg&#8217;s decision to compete against Musk&#8217;s X with Threads.

Why It Matters: The tweet appears to be in response to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39926076/mark-zuckerberg-slams-tim-cooks-apple-after-cupertino-reportedly-rejected-its-iphone-ai-partnership">Zuckerberg&#8217;s recent remarks</a> about Apple&#8217;s rejection of an AI partnership on iPhone deals. Zuckerberg had stated, "They wanted to put us in a box because they view us as competitive."
Apple had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39470144/apple-reportedly-said-no-to-metas-offer-for-iphone-ai-integration-due-to-privacy-policy-concerns">reportedly rejected</a> Meta's AI partnership proposal over privacy concerns.
The iPhone maker has also been at the center of the European Union's scrutiny over multiple issues, ranging from the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/09/34475640/heres-why-apple-took-8-years-to-bring-usb-c-to-iphone-despite-contributing-to-its-development">iPhone's charging port</a> to its services like <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/02/37031233/apple-begins-rolling-out-changes-to-support-alternative-app-stores-in-eu">the App Store</a> and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/03/37454551/apple-hit-with-a-1-95b-fine-in-eu-in-spotify-antitrust-case">Apple Music</a>, among other issues.
Musk&#8217;s agreement with Zuckerberg&#8217;s critique comes shortly after the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39881748/elon-musks-xai-flips-the-switch-on-100k-nvidia-h100-gpus-worth-up-to-4b-in-memphis-supercluster-most">successful initiation</a> of the training of the Memphis Supercluster, touted as the &#8220;most powerful AI training cluster in the world,&#8221; by Musk&#8217;s AI startup, xAI, and Nvidia Corp.
