Lol I work in Silicon Valley. I know this company very well, I've visited their office since my friends used to work there. My previous companies received funding from same VCs. This company is a sweatshop data labeling company where they paid 20 bucks per hour to annotators whom I've met. There is no AI. They first spent all their energy having annotators label google images to sell to ride sharing companies for their AI division before these customers churned and burned. The company is literally run by 20-30 year old management who literally have boba nights and super smash brothers game night for their employees. This company is the ultimate pinnacle of sillcon valley AI charade. This guy just rode the wave of VC AI craze before the eventual tech meltdown. It's no coincidence Scale raised 3 rounds of funding in 3 years to reach sudden 1 billion valuation to get all the marketing hype.
sure lets listen to a random commenter on youtube
@@vallmak why would he lie?
@@vallmak lot of dip shits think they gonna cause an AI crash by spouting bull shit on youtube.
I can actually see this being true. Especially the Boba nights 😂
@@vallmak it is true. They got in trouble for data labeling sweatshop and had to spin off. Its called Remotasks now.
Refused the answer the question about underpaying workers in the global south...
classic ceo
Bruh just dodged the question by answering a different one.
lol, he's just the front for the actual profit makers of the work, the mega corps
@@notKhalid No, he is not the front. He founded this company and is currently the biggest shareholder.
Yep, totally.
And to be honest, it's a stupid question.
The clothes they were wearing surely were made by people earning terrible salaries, but they are still wearing them.
Hypocrites, all of them.
It's a data labelling outsourcing company, why does everyone talk like they've made some profound hardware or software? Can someone care to explain if I'm missing anything?
3 points: They are more than that, they are the best at create the infrastructure to collect the data and they were the amongst the first to do it on a large scale
That's it
*at creating
I feel the same. It's a glorified data labelling company.
Stories from people online who know the company / CEO personally give a not great view of it. Seems very toxic, "house-of-cards" kind of business model, gives me very Theranos vibes
Seems like another hype train to suck in people to invest into the AI bubble at insane valuations.
If Allen Iverson wanted to start a business. Now would be the best time for him to go public! AI is trending!...lol
Bro ain't got no clients nor profits, but his company valued at 14B, welcome to the biggest scammer capitalist world, where people seek investment, flip their company for 2-3B then make courses on how they got so successful
we should start a company together im building an app
he did not even try to address the point of underpaying labelers
Looks like another AI scammer
Bubble
Why can't they build an AI which can facilitate data labelling tasks and use fewer people to get the task done?
With around $250k to invest, what's your advice on entering the market? I'm considering replicating the strategies of experts instead of investing independently to avoid both financial losses and emotional stress. What are your thoughts on this approach?
Consider diversifying your portfolio with a mix of stocks and stable assets. Seeking professional advice now could provide valuable insights and strategies to navigate market uncertainties and protect your investments.
This is an insightful perspective to consider.
Agreed, my portfolio is well matched for every market season, yielding 60% from early last year till date. I and my advisor are working on a 7-figure ballpark.
Your financial advisor must be really good, Wehrine. I hope it's okay to inquire if you're still working with the same advisor and how can I get in touch with them?
That would be Desiree Ruth Hoffman.
Impressive
Excellent overview of AI.
Thank you.
This dude is insanely smart and so mature for his age. While his peers are recording tik tok vidoes, he's one of the leading figures in AI. He speaks like he has 20-30 years of wisdom. He has potentially to become bigger than Musk.
Why didn't he graduated from MIT, it's not like he didn't have time
Musk is a moron🤦
@@noivongxoang235He didn't have time, and he had the opportunity to the few he had because he had the chance to have an innovative idea at the time
Bro you act like he doesn't do any of the normal 20+ year old activities. He definitely goes out just like the rest but manages he time like a maniac
He’s like 34 years old man
Let's always do alot of good ❤️
The reason I got revux is because I believe decentralization is more important than anything else.
This guy looks smart,like him😁
Go public fella! I want to research your financials and potentially buy shares!
His name 'Alexandr' sounds just like a startup with the ending 'dr'
It goes with the brand
bro bag maxxed now started look maxxing 😂
Forget the rest, Revux is where it's at. Potential moonshot!
FOMO kicking in as Revux partners with more and more merchants. Bullish!
amazon is not dumb.
Nice.
bro looks 20 year old
He is 22 yo
@@ainanirina75827
@@ainanirina758 lol he is 27
Scale AI is not AI
Problem is where to get all this data ? Is amazon gonna violate all tje privacy laws ? I ain't giving shit to AI and for what ? To make future robot overlords that will rule mankind forever ?
Every new partnership announcement gets me more excited about Revux!
AI = Apple Intelligence
good interview
More vague BS.
Boiiiiiiiiii I Luv yu

He didn't even answer her question. Her question was good.
Hit 10k today. I'm really grateful for all the knowledge and nuggets you had thrown my way over the last months.🗺
Excited to see how Revux will disrupt the payment industry. Huge potential, and still in presale phase!
Insightful!
