Not just this, it's AH. Not... terrible, but super hype-y from what I've seen.

a16z is absolutely terrible. I'm not going to write off the argument just because they're a horrible organization, but bear in mind that they have a TON of money riding on suckering everyone into buying their AI companies, many of which have dubious value.
