Tesla is buying ads on X (formerly Twitter) to encourage shareholders to vote for Elon Musk's $1 trillion CEO compensation package.
Elon Musk previously opposed advertising, but after acquiring Twitter (now X), Tesla began limited advertising efforts.
Tesla is running ads on multiple platforms, including X, Instagram, Facebook, and Reddit, to push for shareholder approval.
Musk claims the compensation package is about maintaining control over Tesla, not money, to ensure safety in AI and robotics development.
Musk has threatened to halt AI development at Tesla if he doesn’t gain 25% control over the company.
Critics argue Musk is using Tesla funds to benefit his private company (X) while pressuring shareholders for personal financial gain.
