thought: theatre is going to have its golden age again. it will rise in popularity and value as AI takes over tv/film content. the urge to experience real humans, feel visceral emotions and watch stories without fx & edits will grow stronger. recalling a review a read once: "As Willy Loman, Philip Seymour Hoffman could make grown men cry"
I just found out that Luel AI, the company that completely copied my company Kled's entire website, is misrepresenting their compliance practices, using Delve to outsource it, fabricating their website user numbers, and pulling in massive amounts of fraud data from exclusively fraud oriented regions.
Skip to 1:15 if you want to skip context.
You truly cannot make this up. This is egregious, disgusting behavior from everyone involved.
This is people's data. It cannot be taken lightly. The only way a company like this can truly succeed is by investing the time and resources to commit 100% to the trust and compliance of their users' data. Luel AI is doing the exact opposite. Disgusting behavior for a company trusted with people's data.
Law just got more attractive.
Jude Law as the face of @WeAreLegora in our new brand campaign. Yes. Seriously.
The name is almost too good. But the reason we did this isn't the wordplay. We believe this is the most exciting time in history to be a lawyer. Never before have this many brilliant people been working on tools designed to improve and delight lawyers' lives.
This campaign is us saying so. With a little more flair than the usual go-to-market.

You can draw a straight line between the increasing number of scam companies coming out of YC with Garry Tan thinking 37k LOC a day is good.
Once the best incubator in the world it now has:
* No sense of if a claim is viable or not
* No technical acumen to evaluate claims
* A President with no introspection who cannot take critique
* Focuses on telling people to โmove fast and break thingsโ and push growth at all costs
So two young smart kids, make a claim that theyโve used AI to solve complex regulation they have no experience with.
LLM-psychosis Gary naturally would be on board with that.
This company focuses on selling to other YC companies, who trust the YC brand.
Turns out itโs a big old fraud.
I invest in a lot of startups, and it used to be that getting allocation in a YC start-up was the cream of the crop.
That began to decline over the past decade, but it was still a *very* good signal.
Over the past 3-5 years that quality has plunged, and now their reputation is taking a nose dive.
As an investor I actually think of it as a signal of a startup I have to vet with even more scrutiny now.
And that was before Gary started speed-running his insanity of GStack.
Because I canโt imagine any serious startup, with actual technical knowledge, looking at this behavior and going โyeah thatโs where we want to beโ
Truly a generational fumble.
If Paul Graham still has control, itโs probably time for him to step in and right the ship before the brand goes to zero.
