Sam Bankman-Fried and Elon Musk named the worst tech CEOs of 2022
FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) has received the highest score on The Guardian's list of the worst tech CEOs of 2022.
The publication awarded SBF 10 out of 10 due to the collapse of FTX. Earlier, US prosecutors charged him with eight criminal offenses, and lawsuits were also filed by the SEC and the CFTC.
Elon Musk was also on the list - the newspaper awarded him 7 out of 10 points. On October 28, the billionaire closed a deal to buy Twitter for $44 billion. Later, he fired the social network's ethical AI team and implemented a new content moderation policy, which caused dissatisfaction among users.
Journalists named Mark Zuckerberg as another worst leader. They recalled the interest of the head of Meta in the metaverse and the February failure - after the publication of the report for the fourth quarter, the corporation lost almost 25% of its capitalization.
