Elon Musk found him enrolled in yet another social media battle. In an exchange with Indian-American billionaire, Vinod Khosla, Musk showed his usual witty self. 

Khosla in a post on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, called out Musk and said he hasn’t placed any sign stating ‘No plebs allowed’ near his beach front property in California. He said that the signs are AI-generated.

Responding to Musk’s claims that Khosla restricted public access to the beach, the latter in a post demanded an apology from the billionaire and said, “You owe me an apology for spreading falsehoods. I think this post of yours needs a community  comment for being a fraudulent photo. I have never put up this sign or anything even remotely like this. I presume it is AI generated but you can verify that. It will help X if we can have rational debate and not get personal (I can throw personal truths at you unlike your false photo) as we agree on many things (illegal immigration, climate, meritocracy mostly but with caring, ...) and disagree on some big things like who can best save democracy and how important values are in picking a President.”

Musk responded with an apology, but in his own style. The Tesla owner sarcastically commented, “Sorry I made a sign about you restricting access to a public beach. That was so extremely terrible. Please forgive me.” Reacting to the post, Netizens lauded Musk for his wit and enjoyed a good laugh at his trademark style of apologising.
