'Satya, I Don’t Mean To Be A Pest, But Please Allow People Setting Up A New Windows PC ...': Elon Musk Responds To Microsoft CEO Post

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella recently shared a post on his social media platform X (formerly Twitter), announcing the partnership between Microsoft and MistralAI.

In the post, Nadella wrote, "We're announcing a multi-year partnership with @MistralAI, as we build on our commitment to offer customers the best choice of open and foundation models on Azure."

Interestingly, the tech giant and Tesla CEO, Elon Musk, posted a comment on Nadella's post on his social media handle X, requesting the ability for users setting up their new Windows PC to do so without creating a Microsoft account.

In Musk's X post, he wrote in response to Nadella's announcement, "Satya, I don’t mean to be a pest, but please allow people setting up a new Windows PC to skip creating a Microsoft account. This option disappears if the computer is connected to WiFi." He continued, "Also, even if you do want to sign up, it won’t allow you to use a work email address, and I only have work email addresses!"

Netizen's reaction

The post garnered interesting reactions from netizens, with one user on X commenting, "This will go down in history as the most famous tech support X post of all time."

Another X user added, "Elon, I don't mean to be a pest, but is it possible for a Tesla customer to purchase a car without setting up a Tesla account?"
