LivePerson founder's next startup builds AI based on you, with a human-first twist
Scobleizer · x · 2026-10-21
Scobleizer shares the next startup from LivePerson's founder, who built the first website chat app and took it public with $500M ARR. The new venture builds AI "based on you" as a way to monetize what you know. A quoted post frames it as a human-first AI startup hiring more humans to restore authenticity — amplifying people rather than replacing them.
