‘$1 trillion squad’: AI images of Musk, Altman, Huang, Cook with other billionaires spark frenzy

AI-generated images of the world’s most powerful tech leaders have taken the internet by storm, triggering a wave of memes, jokes, and conspiracy-tier commentary. Dubbed the “$1 trillion squad,” the viral pictures feature Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Sundar Pichai, Jensen Huang, Sam Altman, Tim Cook, and Jeff Bezos in surreal, cinematic settings that look straight out of a movie.

While it is uncertain what triggered this, some social media users used Musk's announcement of a new Grok update as an excuse to try to generate images putting all the tech titans in the world in a single frame.

Moreover, when Grok was asked the estimated net worth of one of the pictures, it replied: "This epic tech CEO squad? Combining the latest estimates from Forbes and Bloomberg (as of Nov 2025), their net worth totals roughly $1.2 trillion. Musk leads at ~$425B, followed by Bezos (~$266B), Zuckerberg (~$249B), Huang (~$240B), and the others adding a few billion more. Parallel universe party indeed!"

One widely shared image shows the group standing in a dimly lit parking lot, arranged in a loose circle with luxury cars looming in the background. A Cybertruck dominates one side, flanked by sleek black hypercars and a vintage off-road truck, creating a backdrop that feels more like a Hollywood heist scene than a casual meetup. Smoke curls in the air as one figure holds a cigar, while others stand casually with hands in pockets, dressed in understated jackets and jeans. The lighting casts long shadows, adding to the “final boss” vibe that has captivated social media.

Another image amplifies the absurdity: the same tech titans packed into a cramped, wood-paneled room resembling a low-budget motel party. Plastic chairs, mismatched furniture, and a microwave in the corner contrast sharply with the trillion-dollar influence of the subjects. In the foreground, one figure clutches a red plastic cup while another smokes a cigar, surrounded by a crowd that looks like a college frat gathering. The juxtaposition of immense wealth and a $50-a-night setting has fueled endless jokes online.
