avi is a grifter imo. he got famous from a covid tracking website in 2020- it was popular because of this mapping feature that was taken from volunteer researchers without credit. 

he rode that wave to make a name for himself, and rolled that into raising for a hardware ai start-up which again imo is copying https://github.com/BasedHardware my bet is that it turns out as badly as the other AI wearables and then he moves onto the next thing. 

 Interesting, never heard of him. The whole thing does seem like a perfectly executed gimmick to get into tech press and shared as clickbait by the likes of me lol 

 i might be wrong and it turns out decent- he’s got a pretty good rep in the silicon valley scene, but i think he’s sus 

 This is the project with 2.5m in funding that spent 1.9m on the domain name.
