You mean, "I have no revenue and no business model but I was the CTO of one of the most important technical companies of this generation, we put out one of the fastest growing SaaS products of all time in a completely new technical category."- not sure how much more signal you would need than that. I don't really get why anyone would be confused about why they are throwing money at her. It's an extremely large amount of money, but it's not as if she has no track record.
It is a bubble, of course, but this person would get $100m round in a non-bubble.
Were so many people saying that when Meg Whitman left eBay? Are people saying that about Mira Murati? -I haven't heard anything to suggest she gets no credit for ChatGPT (the product/technical execution, not the model)
It's true that eBay did well during her tenure. And it's also true that she was a better grownup than the people running it before. But she also said that a monkey could drive the train. Would someone else have done better? Could a monkey have delivered the same results? We'll never know, but the experience at HP doesn't validate her as a business genius.
