He says his purpose with the flashy but vague reveal was to get attention by big OEMs. That's a path to money and therefore a reason to lie.

He made his original money selling his no code app to SAP.

So if you want to be skeptical I'd say there's plenty of reason to be skeptical. I don't see why any legit battery corp would need flashy demos and a motorcycle to give you money for serious battery tech. But you can probably get lots of money from someone desperate to get into batteries.

He also revolutionised AI with some really dodgy sounding claims last year:

While im always skeptical about "World changing Revolution" happening one day to another, i really hope this is true and as good as "advertised".

One of the YouTuber did some digging and it’s technically a capacitor. Which is fine as long as it has the desired features

    What are the basic differences between a capacitor and a battery in a market where they are functionally equivalent to consumers as ‘rechargeable energy storage’?

>it looks like either this battery changes the world within the next 3 months, or it will make the CEO look like a fool.

looking at the richest person on earth today, I think we have established at this point truth doesn't really matter, so I think its safe to say the CEO have little to worry about looking like a fool or to face any kind of consequences really.

Skeptical, but still, I hope the company is for real

If you put it that way, my money is on the guy I've never heard of being a fool
