Here's What We Know

Musk's involvement in this conversation highlights his growing influence in Trump's inner circle, especially in light of his criticism of Google's search algorithms. Musk and Trump have previously accused Google of biasing search results, arguing that queries about Trump often lead to irrelevant news stories. Musk's presence in such discussions could indicate his potential influence on the new administration's technology policy.

Ilon Musk was recently named co-director of the newly created "Department of Government Efficiency" and has already participated in a number of significant discussions, including talks with world leaders such as the presidents of Ukraine and Turkey.

The call also reflects efforts by tech leaders to reach out to Trump, as seen in Trump's previous conversations with the CEOs of Apple and Amazon. Musk's dual role as a tech mogul and government appointee raises questions about possible conflicts of interest and the influence of private business on public policy.
