Linda Yaccarino to Step Down as X CEO: A Disappointing Tenure?
Linda Yaccarino announced her departure as CEO of X, following the platform’s Grok chatbot publishing antisemitic content. Yaccarino’s departure, which was in the works for over a week, comes after less than a year of her appointment to the position. While Yaccarino focused on the business side of X, Musk embraced artificial intelligence technology, and X was acquired by Musk’s AI startup xAI in March. During her tenure, she faced issues around antisemitism and child safety, alongside several public appearances, including a Senate hearing regarding child exploitation.
