Why didn't they just call it LeLabs?


I was thinking the same, are all people he hires LeSomething like those working at Bolson Construction having -son as a suffix.


First grinding LEetcode, now having to have 'Le' in the name?

I have no chance in AI industry...

The guy overseeing the funds is called LeFunde and the guy doing the fine-tuning LeTune??
