So if this does happen, I will,\u201d Musk said in a talk on Twitter with Ashlee Vance, the author of a book on Musk and the space race.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">This challenge came after Zuckerberg\u2019s company Meta, which owns Instagram, announced its plans to create a text-based social media platform as a competitor to Twitter.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0The match \u201dmight actually happen\u201d said Musk while attending a birthday party in Europe, adding it was possible that it could go badly if Zuckerberg takes the match seriously.<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">Elon Musk has been teasing Zuckerberg with provocative remarks on Twitter.
