But it's still a great idea.
Also, they should calculate both the calories and power requirements for each meal analyzed. What I mean is, it should says something like: this burger has 800 kcal and the analysis consumed 1kw of datacenter power. ;)
No, it isn't, because it can never work. It is, in general, impossible to determine the calorie content of food by looking at a picture of it.
Define "great".
It has $2m revenue, so it's clearly a great idea (at this stage?) financially and 'people love it' (30% retention)
Technically it's a garbage idea, and I'd say they could get class-actioned without good T&Cs. It's literally impossible to determine the sugar and fat content of a meal.
I'd never make it for the latter reason, however you clearly need to believe in the former to make it big haha.
The $2m figure is unverified but, even if it was, turnover is meaningless without knowing their expenses. If they're burning through £2.1m in LLM compute and marketing then they're losing money.
Plus, the guy seems like a dick so I'm taking his story with an enormous pinch of salt.
