I think you're right about Laya (and confirmation bias).

But like you said, at the end of the day he's just a rando.

He's not asking for $40m, not saying "I made ChatGPT, but i hate it, so I built the next big thing". Not claiming to co-invent RLHF.

Laya is just noise. Jev's bullshit affects me today - I see people injecting it into the codebases where it has no place.

Just how to "make fkn $500k ARR fast?"

too much LI/Xitter influencer consumption

That's really funny, nice find.

To be fair, he's just asking how to get customers. And the post is 2 days before Jev's launch date? I don't think he's trying to sell Laya there (though he probably will at this point).

There's something to be gleaned from the sum of their output across GitHub, arxiv, reddit, and HN (didn't delve LI, I hear it's a hot mess)
