Jeff Bezos calls his AI company 'Project Prometheus.' So does this California lawyer
"Jeff Bezos last month went public with his new AI firm, which is currently being called Project Prometheus. The effort had been in development for a while, but is still relatively secretive. There's no website and only a sparse LinkedIn page describing itself as "AI for the physical economy." The $6.2-billion startup may be facing lots of competition from other AI companies, including giants like Microsoft and OpenAI."
"Wallen tells Fast Company in an email that he hasn't heard from the Bezos Project Prometheus and that he's working at a lawyer scoring platform that uses AI, also called Project Prometheus. Fast Company was unable to identify records related to that company, though there was an LLC registered by a different person in California several years ago. Wallen says he's been developing the site on Figma, shared a minimum viable product on Figma, and was recently accepted to an incubator."
Jeff Bezos unveiled a new AI firm currently called Project Prometheus, described on LinkedIn as "AI for the physical economy," with no public website. The $6.2-billion startup faces competition from established AI companies such as Microsoft and OpenAI. On November 17, an attorney named Patrick Wallen filed a trademark application for "Project Prometheus," listing a residential California address and referencing a website for software that uses AI to evaluate and benchmark individual performance for hiring and development. Wallen says he is building a lawyer-scoring AI platform with that name, shared a Figma MVP, and joined an incubator; records were hard to verify.
