"You always seem to play the vulture @Kvogt — we all know the @cruise Origin’s origin is @zoox . While flattered, you do make a valid point in seeking the best: Zoox engineers are better than yours, and soon better funded :)"

Wow that's pretty funny, but what's the context for that tweet? Did Cruise try to poach talent from Zoox ? The tweet definitely gives me an early 2000's Dotcom over the top rivalry/ceo vibe!
Vogt personally sent out an email to various Zoox engineers encouraging them to work for Cruise.
