Zuckerberg caught on hot mic telling Trump ‘I wasn’t sure’ how much to promise to spend on AI in the US

In a White House dinner, Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta, was caught on a hot mic telling former President Donald Trump that he "wasn't sure what number to go with" when promising to spend at least $600 billion on AI infrastructure in the US by 2028. This interaction highlights the dramatic shift in Zuckerberg's relationship with Trump, as the two have gone from Trump threatening Zuckerberg with imprisonment to praising each other and Zuckerberg making significant financial commitments to the former president's agenda. The article suggests that Zuckerberg's efforts to curry favor with Trump, including donations, policy changes, and a pro-Trump board member, have paid off, with the two now appearing to have a cordial relationship.
