The record claims Jacob Robert Steeves is CEO of Bittensor with an endDate of 2026. However, the source text clearly states that Steeves 'announced that he is stepping down as CEO of the Opentensor Foundation' and that he has already stepped down from this formal leadership role. The article discusses this as a completed action, not a future event. While the article is dated in 2026 context, it describes the stepping down as having already occurred. The record incorrectly lists him as currently serving as CEO with a future end date, when the source indicates he has already departed from the CEO position.
