#13This seems like a top signal to me. Some form of institution rot going on?

#14I really don't understand why someone is encouraging slavery and YC actually funded it.
Day by day things are moving towards dystopia.

#17The launch video is absolutely disgusting edit: it looks like they’ve now removed it, and yc removed their launch tweet

#18When did tech people decided to turn into straight up comic book villains?
We were promised abundance but instead got OpTiMiZaTiOn
Legitimately feel like just crashing out of this industry and taking up farming or something

#19I do not understand how: 1) Someone actually thought this was a good idea 2) Someone actually built it 3) YC actually funded it
4) Someone actually pitched the marketing idea
5) Someone actually made the video
6) Someone actually shared it with YC
7) YC thought it was a good idea to post it
This went through too many layers

Hi Kushal and/or Vivaan,
"The world is trash" is not an excuse to make it worse, and this kind of statement only digs you a bigger hole.
This is not the end of your startup, it could just be a bumpy start if you are able to find a different angle for this technology and turn the boat around. It could be a really nice story tbh, you have the whole world looking at you which is the most difficult thing! No publicity is bad publicity.
But leave that attitude behind ...
