Nice! Could you add the model and dataset to HF?

👀Big one: Discussing A.I model distillation & the U.S vs China rivalry today is our CEO @IridiumEagle along with @benfielding from @gensynai and @castorhat from @PrismaXai. What a treat in the studio!

Most emerging managers run fundraising like a transaction. Send deck → send data room → hope it closes. That’s not how LPs actually decide.

🚨 Holy shit… Deloitte was charged $1.6 million for a healthcare report filled with AI-hallucinated citations. This is the second time in two months they’ve been caught. First an Australian government agency. Now a Canadian province’s Department of Health. And their response? They “stand by the conclusions.” Let me translate that for you: “The AI made up the sources, but trust us, the advice is still good.” That’s a $1.6 million report. For a healthcare system. With fake citations that nobody at Deloitte bothered to verify before submitting. Not an intern’s draft. The final deliverable. The Australian incident was supposed to be a wake-up call. Deloitte even partially refunded that government for the errors. You’d think after publicly embarrassing themselves once, someone would have implemented a basic fact-checking step before hitting send on the next million-dollar engagement. They didn’t. And here’s what makes this story bigger than Deloitte. Every major consulting firm is racing to integrate AI into their workflows. McKinsey, BCG, Bain, Accenture. They’re all doing it. Because AI lets them produce reports faster with fewer junior analysts, which means higher margins on the same $500/hour billing rates. But the entire consulting business model is built on one thing: trust. You’re paying for credibility. You’re paying so that when you hand the report to your board or your minister, nobody questions the sources. The moment that trust breaks, the math changes completely. Why pay $1.6 million for AI-generated analysis with fake citations when you could run the same prompts yourself for $20/month and at least know to check the sources? That’s the real disruption nobody’s talking about. AI isn’t going to replace consulting firms by being smarter than them. It’s going to replace them by revealing that a huge percentage of consulting work was always just expensive research and formatting. And now the clients have access to the same tools. Deloitte’s problem isn’t that they used AI. It’s that they used AI the way most people use AI: paste in a request, take the output at face value, ship it. No verification layer. No human review of citations. No system. The firms that survive this era won’t be the ones who use AI the fastest. They’ll be the ones who build actual verification systems around AI output. The ones who treat AI as a first draft, not a final product. $1.6 million. Fake citations. Twice in two months. And they stand by the conclusions. The consulting industry’s biggest threat isn’t AI. It’s clients realizing they don’t need to pay someone else to hallucinate.

I don't know anyone real who actually uses AI slop apps like Sora by OpenAI or Vibes by Meta. Explosion of interest on launch, but massive post-hype drop-off for both.
