😂 73% “AI startups” — are fake. They do not create their own models, but simply call the ChatGPT API

Analysts have uncovered an uncomfortable truth: more than 73% of companies that sell themselves as "creators of their own AI technology" are actually creating nothing.

Instead of their own models —

ordinary calls to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or slightly modified open-source models from GitHub.

Where does the "magic" of startups begin?

Most often — in the presentation.

And under the hood:

• ready-made API from large companies

• minimal changes

• marketing at the level of "we created a breakthrough in AI"

• and a monthly budget — for advertising, not for R&D

The world of AI is gradually turning into a parade of clone startups,

where the only real product is the packaging and loud promises.

While some are building infrastructure, others are simply inflating prices on beautiful landing pages.
