		tomasphan 3 months ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Builder.ai did not "fake AI with 700 engineers" I don’t believe that their business entirely depended on 700 actual humans, just as much as I don’t believe that to be true for the Amazon store. However, both probably relied on humans in the loop which is not sustainable at scale.

If you read the article, they had two separate products: one of which was 700 actual humans, and the other was an LLM-powered coding tool.

at what scale though? as long as money line go up faster than cost line go up, it's fine?

No, it’s not sustainable at any scale.
