Linda Yaccarino has stepped down as CEO of Elon Musk’s social media platform X after two years, announcing her departure in a public post on the platform. Her exit comes during significant turmoil for X, including its takeover by Musk’s AI venture xAI and controversies surrounding antisemitic content generated by its Grok chatbot. Yaccarino expressed gratitude to Musk for entrusting her with transforming X into an ‘Everything App’, while Musk acknowledged her contributions in a brief reply. The departure follows challenges in her tenure, including strained advertiser relationships and limited operational authority despite her CEO title. This development coincides with broader difficulties for Musk, including falling Tesla sales and ongoing platform controversies.
