The recent resignation of Andy Byron, CEO of the billion-dollar AI firm Astronomer, has sent shockwaves through both the tech world and social media. The scandal erupted after a viral kiss cam moment at a Coldplay concert in Boston’s Gillette Stadium, where Byron was seen cozying up to Kristin Cabot, Astronomer’s Chief People Officer. The clip, which captured Byron wrapping his arm around Cabot’s waist, quickly became a lightning rod for online speculation, memes, and heated debates about workplace ethics and personal boundaries.
