Former Google employees, both aged 33, took a calculated risk by moving beyond their profitable business — which was earning them over $2 million a year — because of artificial intelligence (AI). In this case, far from harming their earnings, AI helped increase their income by 50%.
Dhruv Amin and Marcus Lowe, after leaving Google, were building a startup that was “profitable from day 1.” However, with the advent of AI, the duo considered opening a new organisation, which is now valued at $100 million.
Dhruv Amin and Marcus Lowe, both 33, are the co-founders and co-CEOs of Anything, an AI “vibe-coding” startup valued at about $100 million following an $11 million funding round, according to CNBC Make It.
The company was earlier known as Create, a marketplace that connected startups with freelance software engineers and used AI tools to help build apps and websites. Create was profitable “from Day 1,” Amin told the outlet.
