Linda Yaccarino,director of the social network X (formerly on Twitter), has resigned after two years at the head of the company of tycoon Elon Musk.
In a message posted on the X social network itself, Yaccarino has announced his decision to leave without giving any reason and has implied that there is no disagreement with Elon Musk and has said that he is "incredibly grateful."
In the long message, Yaccarino does not spare praise and claims that he and his team have managed to "bring historical change to the business together, which is remarkable" until the platform becomes "the most powerful public place for all voices and the most powerful cultural symbol in the world."
Although the social network now receives a lot of criticism for removing content filters and broadly receiving racist, macho, or ultra-right-wing messages , Yaccarino has not mentioned or discussed any of these criticisms, but says that his greatest thanks to Musk is "(to him) for trusting and giving him responsibility for protecting free speech."
Grok.
In the messages released after the Yaccarino message, several users link that decision to what happened today with Grok, the chatbot of artificial intelligence created by Elon Musk's team and present on the X social network.
The artificial intelligence company xAI, linked to the X social network of tycoon Elon Musk, has deleted several "inappropriate" Grok publications after receiving complaints about the dissemination of content and anti-Semitic messages in which Grok's messages would receivepraisefrom the Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler .
Nor has Yaccarino made the slightest mention of this problem, but the almost simultaneous occurrence of controversy and resignation has led many users to believe that there is a cause-effect relationship.
On Tuesday, Musk wrote on the X social network, "There's not a single moment of boredom on this platform."
