Is Polsia AI slop or the future of startups?

from ACCESS · host Alex Heath

Some say he's making an AI slop factory. Others say he'll be the first one-man $1 billion startup. Ellis and Alex sit down with Ben Cera, founder of Polsia, a controversial AI startup that claims to build and run entire companies autonomously. They get into whether the product is vaporware or a genuine glimpse at the future of startups, what early users are creating with Polsia, and what a company even means when AI is doing most of the work.
