How would learning about cutting-edge tech ruin your career? Are you an historian?

If you’re in tech just found an LLC (legal zoom $300) call yourself founder and CEO. Declare it as stealth AI startup on LinkedIn. Even if you never release anything (unlikely) The valley loves failure so you’re fine either way.

“Founded a startup that never went anywhere” is not an uncommon story.
