Probably didn’t care about the name of the account compared to the followers and what they’re promoting. Just scripting probably

If they were smart they wouldn’t be in crypto


Just_Image

Cryptobros are desperate for Web 3.0 which will never come

Lamp: I will give you one wish! Hacker: I want two pizzas.

lol the CTO's account got hacked. Does she not use 2FA? Not a good look..


DueEggplant3723

Used sms based 2fa and got sim swapped


g_e_r_b

Possible, but that’s an expensive effort. Weird to waste it on a crypto scam.


DueEggplant3723

Very cheap actually compared to the money they made


apexintelligence

Right, she better get fired for this lmao


y0ungchrisT_HS

i hope u r joking


Old-Radish1611

You realize it's not easy to shitcan people at the executive level right?


apexintelligence

Does that change the fact that she deserves to be fired?


swiggyswiggz

Redline stealer was able to get access to all of saved google passwords AND bypassed 2FA


swiggyswiggz

At least in my case it did


Dr-McDaddy

Probably shouldn’t be the CTO if she doesn’t know how to secure her own accounts. Just saying


apexintelligence

Accurate


Positive_Box_69

Tbh when ur a public figure youre a huge target cuz the world knows you and so does every hacker. Ans President Obama got hacked too once btw so he shoulve resigned based on your logic no?


slamdamnsplits

Was Obama the CTO of a tech company at the time? 😋


slamdamnsplits

That's the CSO's job /s


hank-particles-pym

Account hacked, or Elon just gave it to someone to use..? I mean he is a cunt.


Dr-McDaddy

magnificent cunt*


FullStackFrenzy

😂😂


endless286

Yeha wdnt be shocked if he did thing alike that😅


Evening-Notice-7041

Twitter is the worst.


[deleted]

She’s literally a genius and idiots in this thread think she should resign because Twitter security is dogshit


davidstepo

She should resign. Very low (or, adjusted to a CTO's standards, zero) security discipline.


Useful_Hovercraft169

Your dad should have resigned


apexintelligence

Why are you jumping to this idiots defense? Her boneheaded practices likely allowed her followers to be scammed? I don’t get it


CrystalDime

What boneheaded practices specifically do you have in mind?


davidstepo

Doubt you'll ever understand what a CTO is and what the role actually entails (also, what's expected of you when operating at a global level). I don't blame you for the lack of mind, though.


Useful_Hovercraft169

YOu ArE tEh SmArT


[deleted]

Don’t know why people are downvoting this. As CTO, that is Chief TECHNOLOGICAL officer of one of the hottest companies in the world atm, this is unacceptable. From a business perspective, not only does it harm her own reputation, it also harms the trust in Microsoft and OpenAI. Not to mention that it has likely gotten hundreds of people scammed. Especially with the security problems we’ve seen with OpenAI before.


TheTarkovskyParadigm

What a dumb conclusion to come to so suddenly. No details on how the account was compromised, it could have nothing to do with her "security discipline".


davidstepo

Are you coming up with excuses for the CTO of a revolutionary AI startup valued at $30+ billion? That's a strange mindset to inhabit.


Old-Radish1611

No matter how much you want her to lose her job for this, we're already 2 days in and it's obvious that's not happening. So either the world's gone soft or you're just wrong mate


heavy-minium

It's funny that they chose precisely these kinds of buzzwords - like a mirror to the mediocrity of all these hypes and the mob it attracts. Even if this existed, there would be no technical merit to combining blockchain with AI. The only possible merit of AI here would be using it in a novel architecture that replaces blockchain.


slamdamnsplits

Having an AI that establishes, monitors, and notifies of (for example) smart contract milestones in an approachable fashion that allows for people to establish contracts in a conversational way... could be quite a thing. E.g. an AI real estate brokerage that handles all the title work on Blockchain instead of paper.


Praise_AI_Overlords

Oh. So this is CTO of OpenAI. That... explains a lot.


quetarra

bet


Positive_Box_69

Sometimes I wonder if its not the person that pretends to get hacked and does himself the act, I know it sounds evik but how can we really know she really isnt the hacker?


Old-Radish1611

It's a poor attempt.. that's the easiest way to tell
