I asked my agent to build a collection of our favorite designers, called Deimos. Each article was written through multiple rounds of discussion and refinement between different models.

I can confirm this is 100% bullsh*t
Indian startup founders are some of the most entitled talent exploiting humans i've ever met
And even I used to think it was "normal" until I started working for a US company
I talk to 20 founders building at the edge of tech every single week
Trust me when I tell you this - IT IS NOT NORMAL
These founders demand 80 hour Silicon Valley intensity, 24/7 Slack availability
A company i used to work for is seeing a mass employee resignation right now. Why?
Constantly swearing at their employees, demeaning their work, making them feel like shit all the time, overworking them to the point of burnout
Then these same founders go on podcasts crying about a "talent crisis" and why local talent lacks work ethic.
Anyone in India with high agency and real skills leaves local startups to work remotely for US companies, freelance, or build their own thing.
India does not have mediocre talent
People either go find better opportunities outside or get stuck in a doom cycle of mistreatment and guilt
There is no room for this talent to shine
And even if there is...it doesn't fit the scale of people it needs to host
