$1.5 Billion AI Company That Reportedly Used No Actual AI Goes Belly Up
-
Isnt it "actually Indians"?
-
Years ago there was a voice to text transcription service sold as automated that worked by people listening to your voicemails and typing them out.
That still exists, they run TV ads all the time. The ads even have print that says that someone listens to the callers and types out what they say.

AI company
Uses no AI
Honestly, the smartest thing they could do
Bilks investors for $1.5B and then just walks off with the money
Incredible. Who did they bilk?
Microsoft
Lolz.
Don't forget softbank if there's money to piss away they are always first in live

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
AI is a fucking buzzword

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.

A billion dollars is a worthless amount of money, apparently. Do investors have no loved ones?
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.

We had 100+ classifying text by hand for a customer on India. The costumer thought it was Deep Learning back then.

Also see the "autonomous taxi" services that, when encountering anything outside the limited scope their programming can handle, are remotely operated by human drivers.

You don't get to investor levels of money with empathy.
