In the Pentagon's press release, Musk's title was "industrialist, presidential adviser." The press release revealed that Hegseth's "private meeting" with Musk was held in the minister's office and lasted about an hour. During the meeting, the two discussed innovation, efficiency and smarter ways of working, and how to apply these concepts to the U.S. Department of Defense. The Pentagon said that Musk's last visit to the Pentagon was in 2016, when he met with then-Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter.
