"Mike Liberatore, xAI's chief financial officer, has left the company, according to reporting from The Wall Street Journal. This marks the latest in a string of high-profile executive departures. The former Airbnb executive joined the company in April and left around the end of July, per WSJ. While at xAI, he helped orchestrate the company's $5 billion debt raise, alongside another $5 billion in equity - almost half of which came from SpaceX."
"Liberatore's departure comes after xAI's general counsel, Robert Keele, left in August - a little over a year on the job. Raghu Rao, a senior lawyer, left around the same time as Keele and Liberatore, per WSJ. Igor Babuschkin, an xAI co-founder, announced his departure last month, saying he left the company to launch his own VC firm dedicated to AI safety research."
Mike Liberatore, xAI's chief financial officer, left the company after joining in April and departing around the end of July. He helped orchestrate a $5 billion debt raise and an additional $5 billion in equity, nearly half of which came from SpaceX. Liberatore also oversaw portions of xAI's data center expansion in Memphis. His exit follows other senior departures: general counsel Robert Keele left in August after roughly a year, and senior lawyer Raghu Rao left around the same time. Co-founder Igor Babuschkin departed to start a VC firm focused on AI safety. Linda Yaccarino resigned in July following concerning behavior from Grok; xAI acquired X in late March.
