In his first appearance after the "Twitter" storm, Elon Musk: My next project is to establish a civilization on Mars!
American billionaire Elon Musk appeared in public for the first time after announcing his official withdrawal from the Twitter acquisition deal, as he spent most of the time at a conference of media moguls talking about Mars and his quest to create a civilization on Mars.
His appearance came less than 24 hours after he announced the cancellation of his agreement with Twitter to buy it for $ 44 billion.
The CEO of Tesla and SpaceX appeared during the annual media magnates conference in Sun Valley, which is attended by a group of businessmen.
Although he tried to avoid talking about the Twitter deal, he reconfirmed allegations of fake accounts on the social media platform while addressing an audience of business leaders.
Musk took the stage at the conference organized by Allen & Company, the annual gathering of CEOs of media and technology companies in Idaho.
A few days ago, Musk said he would do everything in his power to help in what he called the "underpopulation crisis", after a media report indicated that he had had a twin with the CEO of his startup Neuralink.
Musk's arrival at the conference shook the gathering, where headline events usually take place away from the prying eyes of the media.
Sam Altman, CEO of Open All, gave an interview to Musk.
The company specializes in artificial intelligence research and is co-financed by Musk.
A senior media official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said before the interview, "It feels like absolute chaos... The man makes his own rules."
Earlier, Musk said he had canceled his agreement to buy Twitter, adding that the social media company had failed to provide information about fake accounts on its platform.
Musk's lawyers said in a notification to regulators that Twitter failed or refused to respond to multiple requests for information about fake or unwanted accounts on the platform, which is essential to the company's business.
Twitter shares fell 6% in post-close trading.
