the billionaire Elon Muskowner of Twitterannounced in his account today that within six weeks a woman – whose identity he is not disclosing – will lead the company operationally as CEO or executive director.

As he had previously announced, he reserves much of the responsibility of the network – which he calls X/Twitter -, in particular “the executive chairman, the head of technology, product oversight, software and system administrator”.

Since he bought Twitter for $44,000 million last October, Musk has assumed operational direction and has also made many changes in an erratic manner, earning him numerous criticisms for pretending to be in charge of day-to-day operations. management of a network. so complex.

In fact, he himself launched an online survey among users last December to ask them if he should cancel the address, which was approved by 57% of the participants. Although he said he would abide by the decision, he did not at the time.

In response, he tweeted: “I will step down as CEO as soon as I find someone crazy enough to take that position! After that, I will only lead the software and server teams.”

The company has been severely undercapitalized, losing nearly four-fifths of its workforce, mostly laid off and in other cases due to voluntary marches.

The various formulas devised by Musk to make the company profitable, such as charging verified accounts, have been a fiasco, and the billionaire has basically been forced to return “verified” status to major accounts (e.g. from the media or “influencers” with legions of followers) without having paid for it.
