This is such a nothing article. At no point does it actually go into any depth over how exactly category theory plays into AI. It's all just investor hype about this guy's previous employment and how much venture capital his bullshit startup has found.

“The transformer is not the end-all-be-all of AI,” said Morgan. “What’s happening in the industry now is hacks on hacks on hacks.”

What computer based product doesn’t have at least 3 layers of hacks in its code base?
