Earlier this year, Roy Lee was dismissed from Columbia University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cluely Inc. Secures $15 Million from Andreessen Horowitz&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His development of Interview Coder, a program that employed artificial intelligence to assist applicants in cheating during technical interviews, led to his expulsion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following this, &#8220;I&#8217;m completely kicked out of school,&#8221; Lee wrote on LinkedIn after being <a href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/tech\/artificial-intelligence\/horowitz-backs-ai-startup-with-slogan-cheat-at-everything\/articleshow\/122000813.cms?from=mdr\">expelled<\/a>. &#8220;HAHA!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In terms of product offerings, AI transcription is one of the services that Cluely Inc. is creating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, the business frequently posts daring updates and well-produced promotional videos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, they offered to cover their employees&#8217; dating app subscription costs as part of one of their announcements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, Cluely declared that it wanted to hire fifty interns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The business also publicly joked about employing strippers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In one particularly attention-grabbing promotional video, Roy Lee was shown going on a date with an older woman while receiving coaching from AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, earlier this month, Cluely made an attempt to throw a startup party. According to TechCrunch, police reportedly disbanded the party before it started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ad Agencies Are Using AI To Get New Business<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, we<a href=\"https:\/\/trak.in\/stories\/this-is-how-ad-agencies-are-using-ai-to-get-new-business\/#google_vignette\"> reported that in 2025, Artificial Intelligence (AI) continues to redefine the advertising landscape<\/a> by enabling brands to connect with audiences in smarter, faster, and more personalized ways. One of the most significant transformations is in personalized advertising. AI algorithms analyze vast volumes of user behaviour and preferences to deliver tailored ads that resonate with individual consumers. This capability is already employed by platforms like Google Ads and Facebook Ads, and it\u2019s expected to become even more accurate as data collection and analysis improve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another major shift lies in predictive analytics. By leveraging historical data, AI can forecast which ads will perform best, allowing advertisers to allocate budgets more efficiently and target the most conversion-ready segments. This data-driven approach helps businesses, particularly small and mid-sized ones, maximize return on investment by minimizing wasteful ad spending.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cluely Inc., an AI startup renowned for its provocative viral marketing, has received a $15 million investment from Andreessen Horowitz.
