Today I'm sitting here chatting with Brendan Fudi at the offices of Mercor. Mercor is an AI company, we'll get into more details soon enough, which dates from early 2023. Brendan is the CEO and co-founder. I believe he's the youngest unicorn founder ever. Mercor, by some estimates, is the fastest growing company ever, for instance the quickest speed to $400 million.
Brendan also at age 22 is the youngest conversations with Tyler, guest ever. My proudest achievement. There's more we'll get to soon enough, but Brendan, welcome. Thank you so much for having me, Tyler.
