PS3 Hacker George Hotz gets to work on Twitter
Hotz, who recently founded a company called comma.ai, which focuses on artificial intelligence for use in automatic car driving, said that this initiative of Hotz was purchased by Tesla Motors, which was offered for $ 12 million. However, these took their place on the dusty shelves of history as unfulfilled works. But Hotz undeterred continued to keep in touch with Musk on Twitter, and it looks like he’s been successful in the end.
The hacker, who accepted a 12-week internship at Twitter for the cost of living in San Francisco, announced that he took the role at Twitter to work on the social media’s search function.
Elon Musk’s ability to attract big names seems to have drawn PS3 hacker Hotz into his business as well. Other developers like Hotz are also looking for opportunities to work with Musk on Twitter, even if it means not getting paid.
