Elon Musk calls Jeff Bezos 'copy cat' as Amazon buys Zoox

Tesla CEO Elon Musk is criticizing rivaling billionaire and Amazon CEO, Jeff Bezos, on Twitter after the e-tailing giant's splashy acquisition of a self-driving startup. In a tweet after the news, Musk called Bezos a'copy cat' for Amazon's decision to acquire Zoox, a self-driving technology company, for $1billion. 'Jeff Bezos is a copy [cat emoji] haha,' said Musk in the tweet which also linked a report from the Financial Times about Amazon's acquisition of Zoox. Musk's critical tweet no doubt references the CEO's own ventures with the electric vehicle company, Tesla, which has been making its own self-driving vehicles and software for some time. In addition to developing self-driving technology, Zoox, much like Tesla, also develops its own vehicles and aims to use those autonomous cars to let people order driverless rides from their phones.
