$1.5B AI Startup Bankrupt After Investors Discover “AI” Was Actually Ajay and Imran
Builder.ai, once hyped as a revolutionary no-code AI company and backed by Microsoft, has spectacularly gone bankrupt after it was revealed their “cutting-edge AI” was actually a room full of sleep-deprived Indian engineers.
The company promised apps built by artificial intelligence. Turns out, the “intelligence” was very real — just not artificial.
One ex-employee confessed, “Our AI was so advanced, it even drank chai and took lunch breaks.”
When reached for comment, the CEO said, “We never lied. We just let people assume AI stand for ‘Available Indians.’”
Tech world’s takeaway? Next time, look under the hood before buying the hype. Or at least check if your AI has a LinkedIn profile.
