They appear to be 2 people. I kinda of think folks should cut two people, one of whom just publicly apologized, a little slack re: how buttoned up they are about licensing. Particularly when they appear to have started sharing source code before YC's investment, and the last time I spoke to an attorney who advises on open source licensing he was expensive.
I'd take you up on that bet. The AI can get as good as you want, but the reason you get a human to write and verify legal documents is so there's someone accountable. Their own job and reputation is on the line if they're doing bad work. Unless the company providing LawyerBot As A Service and writing everyone's legal documents is going to take all accountability, but that's a massive liability.

Reading the room, people are upset about grifters, scams and fakery in general. The outrage is obviously built up over seeing our industry decline to buzzwords, bait and switch, and general enshittification. This is just one particularly clear-cut instance of opportunistic grift caught in the act. It’s like that IoT juice press – it’s not that harmful, but it’s a symbol of what people hate.
