X users are complaining about an influx of low-quality ads promoting crypto scams and AI "undressing" apps.
The decline in reputable advertisers on X has made the platform more reliant on less reputable ad buyers.
The exodus of advertisers, partially due to Elon Musk's controversial behavior, has left X with a growing revenue gap.

I would personally go with:

"Some may say that Mr. Musk was a visionary, and further to the road map laid out by Mr. Musk during the Dealbook Summit, our organization is happy to assist with bringing said business forecast into reality."

Past tense on visionary
brings up him telling companies to "fuck off"
rubs it in that his financial people have clearly told him that this is how Xitter goes belly-up, and that when he tries to fix it, he just makes it worse.
