Its not really an outlier
If you think about Theranos, Magic leap, openai, anthropic they are all the same, one idea thats kinda plausible (well if you don't look too closely), have a slick demo, and well connected founders.
Much as a lot of people dislike LeCun (just look at the blind posts about him) he did run and setup a very successful team inside meta, well nominally at least.
- CamperBob2 1y agoRidiculous. Theranos was a literal crime scene. Its products didn't work at all, and physically couldn't work due to the nature of blood itself. Magic Leap was an honest if overhyped effort that didn't achieve product-market fit. Meanwhile, products from OpenAI and Anthropic have both done useful work for me this week.

- krama 11mo agoMagic leap delivered AR glasses running SLAM. It over sold on the market for it, didnt lie about whether it would work and didn’t test on patients looking for medicial care. You sound very uninformed. Theranos founders are serving prison sentences. Big Difference.
