What's so striking about it? The fact the she's a convicted fraudster does not mean that she's not an expert in the field.
movingontonext•9mo ago
And the fact that she was able to execute effectively on the fund raising and marketing aspects of her venture doesn’t mean that she IS an expert in her field. The problems with and ultimate outcome of Theranos paint a pretty clear picture of that.

Visible association with a convicted fraudster, especially one as high profile her, should be a giant red flag to investors and consumers.

anovikov•9mo ago
We live in the world where there is no such thing as a negative publicity. Just look at Trump. People take notice apparently.

After all, we all know that funded startups are just a pump and dump game. It doesn't matter whether the thing is real at all, what truly matters is how big will the "bigger fool" that comes after you. Holmes attracts eyeballs and thats' all investors need.

seanhunter•9mo ago
Why would she be an expert in the field though? She did some of a chemistry degree and worked for a bit as an intern in a drug testing lab. Apart from that all her experience has been in fraud.
nothercastle•9mo ago
At the ceo level fraud is a large part of the field. Just think of all the PE firms itching to hire a good fraudster
xeonmc•9mo ago
So you mean that fraud is a part of the qualification?
nothercastle•9mo ago
And the job, in cases like this the bet is that you are getting at in at the top of a pyramid scheme and you will get out before it collapses. It’s not a terrible bet if you are self aware and cognizant of that.
iancmceachern•9mo ago
What about the others in the pyramid? Are they aware and cognizant of it? Is it theft if they arent?
nothercastle•9mo ago
Hard to draw the line between fraudster and victim sometimes isn’t it

> The fact the she's a convicted fraudster does not mean that she's not an expert in the field.

Indeed it doesn't. Could you please provide evidence that she is an expert? Running a fraudulent company doesn't count.

>artificial intelligence startup hoping to introduce a product that can be used in medical testing and other settings... blood testing.

This... literally sounds like another Theranos. Bizarre and comical.

Is this based on solid R&D, patents, and proof of concept? Or is it more hot air?

>Partner... Luminar

Luminar spent massive amounts of money on in-house tech with no revenue, then ran out of money, shut it all down and outsourced it, diluted shareholders to zero, and the CEO extracted hideous amounts of cash, became one of the richest youngest CEOs of all time, and bought a massive mega millions house in Austin from the shareholder capital. Maybe that's the objective? Well if so, at this point one truly can blame the investors.
