AI already sounds exactly as convincing as a lawyer or a financial analyst, whether it's right or not. Ahmed Rashad, founder of Perle AI, spends his career finding where it breaks before someone trusts it with a decision that matters. Jemma Green sits down with him to unpack model collapse, preference collapse, and why he flatly rejects the AI industry's bet that humans eventually become optional. Highlights:

  • Why he calls today's AI a college freshman who just finished a survey course and thinks they understand everything
  • Why Perle pays its global contributor network in stablecoins and runs on blockchain, and how that flips the industry's usual overhead-to-contributor revenue split
  • Why OpenAI shutting down Sora proves that model capability alone doesn't protect a company against better-distributed competitors
  • What building Perle has cost him personally, and why his only strategy is "build and sell"
