‘Biggest scam ever in the world’: Nithin Kamath asks startup founders not to brag about AI; social media reacts
Zerodha CEO Nithin Kamath has dismissed AI claims in startup pitches as unoriginal, likening it to boasting about daily hygiene.
Zerodha CEO Nithin Kamath has criticized startup founders for leading their pitch decks with the statement "we use AI", stating that it no longer serves as a genuine differentiator. According to Kamath, the phrase has become a "surefire way to get ignored" by serious venture capitalists. He argues that AI should now be considered "table stakes" rather than a unique selling point.
The comment has sparked debate online, with some comparing "we use AI" to older buzzwords like computers or websites, while others argue that verification of AI's actual impact matters more than how it's marketed.
