Cohere’s AI: Boring Bots for Billion-Dollar Business Boredom
Meet Cohere, the Canadian AI startup founded in 2019 — the snooze button of the LLM world! Valued at a casual $6.8 billion, they specialize in training language models on ‘fake companies, fake emails, and fake APIs’ to serve Dell, SAP, and Salesforce, not cozy chats with your mom. Co-founder Nick Frosst proudly claims their AI isn’t designed to entertain or engage, unlike Meta and Google’s chatty robots that actually follow you around your phone like clingy exes. Cohere’s motto? ‘We don’t want you responding to mom faster, just more often by choice.’ Because who needs charm when you’re swimming in synthetic business data?

(1 of 3)Cohere’s AI isn’t your flirty digital BFF—it’s busy mastering fake emails at fake companies while racking up a $6.8B valuation. Because who needs engagement when you can automate awkward corporate jargon and leave moms waiting?
Imagine paying billions just so your AI can ignore you entirely and spend its time writing emails for imaginary businesses instead of small talk with your mom. Hello, priority-setting!
Cohere bets big on AI that’s so boring, it won’t even keep you interested. Meanwhile, Meta’s chatbot’s sliding into DMs uninvited. Cheers to anti-social AI winning the startup race.
