> The company also denied claims made in a June article in Forbes that its founder strays from the truth. On stage at a Bloomberg conference in June, Mostaque said that he sometimes is misunderstood. “I’m doing the best I can,” he told the audience. “I have a very definitive view of the future.”
Does anyone understand what is meant by "a very definitive view of the future" in this context?
- polynomial 3y agoA future where I am not successful is definitely not an option.

- haldujai 3y agoI misunderstood your reply and thought you were saying “I have a very definitive view of the future” has a tvtropes so I Googled it. Interestingly, a different Bloomberg article from June has a slightly different version of the Mostaque quote, was also questioned by a commenter on HN, and "emadm" (I'm assuming that's him) responded: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36512994 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36512994 Edit: There's a third article with the same quote too: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-06-28/stability-ai-secures-convertible-note-after-fundraising-struggle https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-06-28/stability... That's three articles within 6 weeks by Rachel Metz and Mark Bergen using the same quote. I found it interesting too but that's a bit much (and lazy).
