Scale AI CEO Alexandr Wang revealed that most muse users never knew how much of the product was Nat Friedman's 'baby': he assembled and ran the team, and many of the details users love came from his own ideas.
Matt Deitke chimed in, calling Friedman the best product mind he has ever seen, with uniquely creative ideas about how to use AI models, and said watching him see muse through was inspirational.
