It makes no sense, Proton was just on for a free win and growth, they just had to keep status quo. I dont know who Yen has been speaking to, but he has become a complete nutjob (unless he always was?).
I think he's always been an idiot and and a shithead, but yeah he has basically just did more damage to proton than anyone else ever has or ever will.
He probably was in that Ted conference not so long ago where it appears all world CEOs went and they all were drinking the ai koolaid. My ceo also came from there talking insane shit and that we should adopt it and it's the future and that so many companies are using it for cool stuff. Completely insane.
I think he spoke with ChatGPT too much. It really seems to be unhealthy to do that, especially when you already have delusions of grandeur.
