This is probably the best fundraising deck I have seen

amazing @lacker reference

@kevinakwok Basically: I'm Noam Shazeer, I invented the transformer, and I'm raising money

@kevinakwok all this just to make the most cringe electronic furry girlfriend app of all time 😬

I love how the pitch deck is basically has the vibe of "come on it's Noam Shazeer just fund us"

@kevinakwok A simpler time.

@kevinakwok Iconic
