Portfolio Pulse from Ananya Gairola
Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has expressed his dislike for Microsoft's LinkedIn, calling it 'cringe'. He hinted that the app X plans to introduce a more 'cool' alternative. Musk, who also acquired Twitter for $44 billion in October 2022, prefers to receive resumes or bios via email. This comes after LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman criticized Musk for his stance on AI trials. LinkedIn is expected to see a cumulative increase of 82.6 million users from 2024 to 2027, representing an 11.07% rise.
