😃 The Natasha neural network turned out to be 700 Indian programmers

The startup BuilderAI offered to write any application, like in a constructor, by selecting the necessary functions.

In reality, customer requests were sent to the Indian office, where 700 Indians wrote code instead of AI.

With the help of this scam, the startup attracted $445 million in investments from major IT giants, including Microsoft, over eight years.

At the same time, the applications “written by AI” constantly glitched, the code was unreadable, the functions did not work — in general, everything was like real artificial intelligence.

After the deception was exposed, the startup officially went bankrupt 🤷‍♂️
