So he replaced HR with "People ops", which I'm assuming is HR but powered by LLMs? So, Steve with 5.5?
It's a crypto trading app that calls itself a super app and whose CEO is writing outlandish Linkedin posts to get attention to the failing company.
Not worth the HN bandwidth and attention in my opinion.
