A remote interview with Elon Musk at a major technology conference in Paris was halted for several minutes after the feed of him at the event went dark, marking yet another Musk appearance disrupted by technological glitches.
“I’m sorry,” said Maurice Levy, the chairman of advertising agency Publicis Groupe SA who was moderating the Viva Technology event and was left to fill the void without a subject to interview. The disruption wasn’t artificial intelligence, Levy joked, “It is Elon Musk who has to learn how to use a computer.”
