Lol, who would have thought


A $1.5 billion AI company backed by Microsoft has shuttered after its ‘neural network’ was discovered to actually be hundreds of computer engineers based in India.

AI is all the rage right now as companies laser in on language-learning models like ChatGPT, Gemini, LLaMA and more.

However, one of these AI brands has been exposed as a total sham in a wild scam that’s going viral on social media.

‘Natasha,’ an AI app-building service from London-based Builder.ai, claimed it had the ability to use artificial intelligence to create applications. From coming up with app designs to writing code, Natasha promised to pump out programs in record time.

When you come to work. Only for your boss to tell you. Your AI cover is blown and there shutting down.

the fact that microsoft gave them almost half a billion dollars without vetting them shows that this bubble is coming to a crash, same as dot.com and real estate, people are just throwing money because AI is the new buzzword.

"Analysts became suspicious when 'Natasha' kept repeating that it would kindly do the needful and produced dumpster-tier generated code."
