X announced its new Head of Product with a troll-ish in-app screenshot: a giant finger composes a post reading "New Head of Product at @X!" quoting Peter Sellis, who says he's joining as Head of Product and cites his belief in X's multiplanetary mission. Both a real hire and an AI-adjacent tech-culture moment.
