To clarify, while we intend to use AI to solve a variety of different problems, we're not using it for actual code synthesis (ie. building apps). Instead we are leveraging code reusability and programmatic stitching/merging for our software assembly line.

In addition to that, we are leveraging various AI/ML techniques throughout the rest of the product development lifecycle, for areas such as pricing/specing/ideation, infrastructure management/scalability, code reusability itself and matching, creator (developer/QA/design) resource matching, sequencing and dependency prioritization, and more.

Yeah, none of that sounds like AI. It sounds like standard features of IDEs and PaaS. I can't imagine you have a programmatic way to save much time on pricing/specinf/ideation because machines can't do that yet.

Also, the clear message of the company was "AI writing code that would otherwise be written by humans".

Again, would strongly suggest you stop posting anything about this situation without consulting a lawyer. Based on your HN posts, you can't claim ignorance anymore.
