He won't be ousted, maybe at most forced to forgo some stock. He's too intrinsically tied to the value of the company. Sort of like Musk and how overvalued his companies are, but to a lesser extent.

**EDIT: ** I stand corrected, he stepped down. Though, unsurprisingly, the stock took another shit.

Looks to me like he is just a sales man that talks a lot of bs. Anyone can replace him. Even AI could do that job.

I know everyone hates a salesman, but sales is absolutely a trade and some people are way better at it than others.

Functionally, that is true for all CEOs. But this is a PR game.

god that would be hilarious if they trained a model off of all his interactions and public appearances and then had a virtual CEO.

This is going to be like when openAI ousted altman all over again.

Is he? He's always seemed extremely tangental to me.

I don't think I've ever heard the man speak
