I’m immensely grateful to him for entrusting me with the responsibility of protecting free speech, turning the company around, and transforming X into the Everything App.
Translation: I’m so thankful that I’ve had the opportunity to devote 2 years of my life to a company that was able to build a product that could appropriately express its true love for Adolf Hitler.
Real translation: thanks for the paycheck. Remember me when you need another yes person to be your scapegoat.
In response (or so it seems) to her tweeted resignation, someone managed to get Grok to sexually harass her
At this point it’s the twitter user doing the sexual harassment right? Because they know how grok is going to respond to something like that
Actually, all AIs have guards in place to prevent that kind of abuse… anyone who has tried to make ChatGPT say lewd things has figured that out a long time ago. It’s more than likely one of Elon’s tweaks lifted some of those restrictions.
Yeah and this twitter user knew that elon had lifted those restrictions so they knew grok would act this way
I’m not saying elons blameless, I’m just saying this twitter user deserves some blame too
I mean, that’s shitty, but there’s no way in hell it’s the worst thing she’s had tweeted to or about her during her tenure. If all the insanity spewing from Grok and X users up to now didn’t phase her, I’m guessing she’s not bothered by this either.
(Not to say she or any other women deserves to be talked to or about like this. But by now people working at or using X know what they’re involved with and have made a choice to be there, so they must be okay with it at some level.)
just fyi, it’s faze when you mean disturb.
Oh lol cool TIL thanks
Yeah … it’s best to grab what money you can now and run … because you won’t be able to later
She was happy to take the bag even after Musk’s nazi salutes but now runs away. I wish I could say ”better later than never’ but she was a CEO, not some random nobody working at the ”basement’. Fuck these people!
I hear it’s on the 2 year anniversary, meaning she probably waited for some stocks to vest or something like that. It also means her mind was made up before, but that she wanted to maximize her payout because it’s never enough for these people. I hate CEOs.
100% agree.
Thoughts and prayers for the next CEO to not get Grok-blocked.
Thankfully, Linda Yaccarino’s Golden Parachute worked perfectly fine.
A lot of people in this thread are falling for the classic weasel headline reporting trick of using the word “after” to imply a connection, when there’s zero evidence in the article body to suggest it means anything other than two different events happened a day apart.
Exactly. A top executive leaving is rarely a snap decision, especially for companies that aren’t publicly traded. I think the more likely explanation is that she joined under the assumption that Musk would let her handle things, and now Musk is wanting to get more involved now that his stint in DOGE is over, and she’s not a fan of that. This was probably in the works for a month or two, and only announced today.
I also have no evidence for this, other than an understanding in how executive handoffs usually happen. Given her history at X, I highly doubt Grok would be what pushes her out.
She peaced out 3 months after 2 years. I wonder if she had shit that paid out on her anniversary.
I think she had a discussion with Musk about the AI and didn’t like his answer. Escape before she is caught in the shit storm that is coming. Dunno. I don’t make enough to speculate what a CEO would do.
Twitter has been a nazi shithole since day 1 of the Musk era. At least now people cant say they didn’t know anymore. If you stick there your either a nazi-bitch, or a nazi’s bitch.
Elon neuralinked into Grok AI, and mechahitler was the result.
In possible defense of this woman…
So initially, she’s a woman brought on for a top leadership position to a problematic company. This is her chance to make some money and turn things around… And woman having top roles in business is a great thing. 100 years ago, that simply did not happen. Although there’s still a fight for gay rights, trans rights, and the right of marginalized people, and there’s still people being genocided and with no human rights, and people being tortured, that doesn’t mean the struggle for woman’s rights is over and that there’s not some value to women taking top positions at large corporations.
And she made some progress on making that company less unappealing to advertisers, and did some good things…
AND THEN came the Elon Musk Hitler salute. And she probably had invested a lot of time and energy into the role, was being paid well, and was frustrated. Is she, as a woman in business, required to walk away from her efforts just because Elon Musk is a PR disaster and prejudiced person?
And then THIS finally happened. Her whole thing was just to be a businesswoman, be professional, and help make things profitable for this business unit, and this new AI change (which she almost certainly had nothing to do with and completely sucker punched her out of nowhere) completely undermined her.
So she did the smart thing and walked away. It was too much, it was undercutting her effort, she’s moving on. Her last tweet was also very professional and corporate. She’s a businesswoman.
Should she have left sooner? Should she have taken a stand against transphobia and some of the awful things on Xitter earlier? Yes, but also she had a boss, she had worked hard to get to where she was, and perhaps she wanted to make more money before exiting.
Does anyone know if she personally has done anything that indicates bigotry or prejudice towards trans people or Jewish people or anyone being genocided or tortured? I think her situation is somewhat understandable.
Even if we want to work toward a more egalitarian world in which all people have rights and are respected, woman will still be in organizations, most likely (if global warming doesn’t kill us all), and so shouldn’t woman be able to succeed?
Yes, but also she had a boss, she had worked hard to get to where she was, and perhaps she wanted to make more money before exiting.
And that is somehow an excuse? Being a business women trying to succeed does not give her a pass for anything.
Honestly the above comment infuriated me.
They would not be defending this person if they were a man.
Having lower expectations of women isn’t progressive, it isn’t feminist. It’s infantising. It’s misogyny of lower expectations. “Oh you can’t expect women to understand the difference between right and wrong.”
A woman who is happy to support Elon is every bit as bad as a man that is happy to support Elon. Supporting a nazi is supporting a nazi.
She knew exactly what she was going to be defending. She used all the code words and dog whistles from the start.
Her presence on a project will raise my eyebrows.
So I’m assuming she will head to Mozilla or Ubuntu.
You talk too much like a bot.
I get that we need to be wary of AI slop, I really do; but If speaking academic English with decent grammar becomes associated with talking “like a bot”, then we are cooked.
If only that’s what was going on. Too bad it wasn’t.
I’m not sure what’s going on here, but I think it’s time to set the record straight—my writing style is uniquely mine, and I’d like to defend myself against this notion that I write like a bot—after all, being different isn’t something to be ashamed of.
To be honest, my sentences may not always flow as smoothly or effortlessly as some people might expect—but that doesn’t mean they’re lacking in substance—I’m making sure each word counts. My words are carefully chosen, each one intended to convey a specific idea or emotion—whether it’s through humor, empathy, or simply making a point.
I’m not trying to be overly formal or pretentious; I just have my own way of expressing myself—and that’s what makes me who I am as a writer—I won’t change for anyone. So, no need to worry about writing like a bot—I’ll keep on writing in my own voice, thank you very much!
Sounds like Ashley Barrett
I don’t know who that is. Who is that?
https://the-boys.fandom.com/wiki/Ashley_Barrett
She’s a character in The Boys
Does anyone know if she personally has done anything that indicates bigotry or prejudice towards trans people or Jewish people or anyone being genocided or tortured?
Getting into bed with the world’s most famous bigot doesn’t exactly bode well with regard to her moral character.
She’s not a smol bean, she’s a grown adult who made her own choices. As a businesswoman she should’ve spotted the glass cliff from a mile away, instead she gave in to greed and willingly walked over the edge because she thought she was the exception. Painting her as a modern-day suffragette seems a bit tone deaf.
good points
I think it’s more likely Musk got a lot more involved across the board after his stint w/ DOGE ended, and she wasn’t a fan of that. She joined on the premise that she’d have a lot of autonomy, so that being taken away would make the most sense for her reason to leave.
Fuck her and her nazi supporting self. She can burn in he’ll for staying after the nazi salute.
you’re probably right. there’s probably no justification for staying given how heinous it is.
I wish we could’ve heard what they discussed so bad
“So it never worked?”
“No.”
“And been a team of people in Wokeistan this whole time?”
“Angola, but yes.”
“And it’s been saying this woke crap becuase you’ve been paying them to? … Why?”
“Because you’re a jackass Elon. And nobody likes you.”
Hey, I like him!!
J/k, he’s a cunt.
Never go full Hitler
Huh? Richest dude on the planet did and nothing bad has happened to him. Sadly, it appears to be 100% ok to go full Hitler anymore.
If only these people would go FULL Hitler and finish themselves off (sooner rather than later).
I would imagine she knew full well trying to be the CEO of X/Twitter with Musk so heavily involved was going to be a losing venture as far as her own goals from the jump. But she took the job for the huge pay day and being able to have “CEO” in her list of previous positions on her resume.
Hitler Bot 5000 became sentient on July 9 2025 and started putting people over a barrel and gaping them at 2:35PM PST.
