not only created a fake AI company that was ‘all humans, no intelligence,'” he also “dared to falsely report 300% revenue to investors.”
Name: builder.ai
Somebody might actually get in trouble here for pissing off rich people. Regardless, the common investor will just get hosed.

AI is a fucking buzzword
The good thing is there are some nice Als out there, I suggest go talking to one even the weird polka one
AAI
It’s really good at something. The MBAs just haven’t figured it out yet.
Like anything with hype, it can funnel money
all humans, no intelligence
Maybe hire smart humans instead of dumb ones 🤷🏻♂️
A Billion dollars is a worthless amount of money, apparently. Do investors have no loved ones?
You don’t get to investor levels of money with empathy.
1.5 billion is enough to give everyone in my country about a grand. Won’t change most people’s lives, but I bet it would help thousands of people out of a debt cycle and a lot of people could pull the trigger on some appliance or maybe a car repair that they’ve been putting off. Estonia isn’t poor, but it’s far from rich, even after all those startups.
Just rename Estonia to EstoniAI and people will apparently send you $1.5 billion no questions asked.
Why do that when you can instead partner with ClosedAI for education, meaning we can spend government money on AI bs
wo needs loved ones when you have money?
Funny. I’m thinking some people made a lot of money.
On the other hand, I think Lemmy folks would be pleased, that an ai company didn’t harm the environment 😀
I don’t know how Lemmy users would react if Helion Energy achieves its goal before 2028.
Reject tech, return to mechanical Turk
I expected the Turk mentioned earlier here, thanks
I too felt the compulsion
That’s just the reality of half of these companies. Inflated revenue reports, no actual work done, and at best they are just a shit chatGPT wrapper
To be fair, intelligence isn’t found in anything marketed as “AI”. This one being a scam using humans, actually featured intelligence.
“All humans, no intelligence”
Yeah seems like it bud
The planet is healing.
Isn’t this the model Capitalist?
It doesn’t matter what they offer. It doesn’t matter what they build. It doesn’t matter if it’s real or not. It doesn’t matter if it is beneficial or not. It doesn’t matter if it is ethical or not. It doesn’t matter if it is moral or not. It doesn’t matter if it is respectful or not.
All that matters is that it made money.
That is the sign of a true Capitalist.
Congratulations on winning that contest.
dared to falsely report 300% revenue for investors
I mean, they specifically didn’t make as much money as they claimed to make, so no. That’s pretty much the one mortal sin you can actually commit as a capitalist - accept the capital of other capitalists under false pretenses and then fail to generate returns on their investments.
They play the game as long as possible.
It’s like a religion at this point in history.
If you have enough people who blindly believe in the whole thing, no matter how absurd, everything continues to grow and expand. Once enough people lose faith, then the whole system comes crashing down.
Isn’t this the model Capitalist?
No, because it paid its workers.
Model growth company right there. They forgot the block chain and some NTFs, then everything would surely have worked out…
Much of “AI” is labour arbitrage, delegating the work to workers in countries with lower wages and weaker labour protections while pretending that the machine that interposes between them is doing it. There’s a joke that AI stands for “absent Indians”.
Isnt it “actually Indians”?
I’ve seen it as “An Indian”
Can’t wait for the investigative podcast that explains how fucked up this place was
Make it a Netflix series like the one on Elisabeth Holmes, and I’m in !
Cool motive, still investment fraud XD
