Last month, Roy Lee was suspended from Columbia after he was accused of using AI to “cheat” on technical job interviews for Amazon, Meta, and TikTok. On Sunday, he announced that he raised $5.3 million to start Cluely, a new startup that aims to allow users to similarly “cheat on everything.” 

Cluely went viral when it launched earlier this week thanks to a commercial Lee posted on X. In the video, Lee bumbles his way through a date. A large UI sits between him and his date, feeding him information about the woman’s interests and coaching him on how to talk to her.

In an interview, however, Lee told me that his AI tool is not really cheating. 

“Initially it will feel like cheating, but if we win, nobody will think this is cheating,” Lee told me.
