Have any juicy articles to back up your unsubstantiated claim?

The founder is a known con artist involved in such other things as solving nuclear fusion and stealing $2.5M in a Kickstarter scam.

The cofounder is the founder’s brother and has literally zero documented professional or academic experience.

The company’s job postings are nonsensical and AI-generated.

The company is unwilling to evidence any of its (extremely extraordinary) claims, which have been made on a timescale that makes no sense in the context of the semiconductor industry.

The company’s research facility is, based on photographs that they’ve published, at least two orders of magnitude smaller than what would be necessary.
