Linda Yaccarino, CEO of X, has resigned from her position, citing two "incredible years" in her tenure. The reason for her departure is unclear, but the move comes amid controversy surrounding the platform's AI chatbot, Grok.

We started with the critical early work necessary to prioritise the safety of our users — especially children, and to restore advertiser confidence.
X is truly a digital town square for all voices and the world's most powerful culture signal.
Linda Yaccarino's abrupt departure may be a result of a lack of fit between her approach and Elon Musk's style.
This may have come to a head when the embedded AI chat Grok started responding to AI posts in an increasingly offensive manner yesterday.
