Unlike someone of Elon Musk’s stature for instance, who wants to be rich, powerfully, successful and famous too. In fact Michael’s tech experience has greatly helped Gaga more than she’s helped him, he helped her create her own business and marketing company to have control over her own work. And alongside that, he has helped her start this B2B company too. I like nuance really, so until him or Gaga actively express any actual Zionist opinions — I’ll reserve my judgement tbh. I can definitely see your position; to be fair, Michael‘s only public stance (I think?) is that he had a “really, really great experience” working with a supremacist within a business capacity, so maybe he‘s just neutral given his personal experiences. I think as the company grows in its public awareness and starts to gain traction, they’ll probably start establishing their social vision or I guess the company’s stance on social issues (likely starting with the medical science and tech industry spaces though, but depending on their messaging approach or Comms strategy, they might be more open to entering dialogue about the larger cultural landscape) … ? But/and, again, we’re all just learning this stuff as we go along … so I guess we’ll find out together in due time 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALGAYDO 35,714 Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Jesus Christ, some of you are so ****ing stupid. Up there on your high horses pretending to know what you’re talking about. No wonder Gaga doesn’t love us anymore, she realized just how reactionary yall are without even knowing the full truth of something lmao but at least it’s super fun to read through. Don’t stop tbh, I needed some fun and light reading between my shifts lol 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 (edited) Girl, Stefanyahu Germanotta’s shiny little human-skin/AI biotech startup is backed by an investor network that also finances hypersonic missiles, autonomous weapons, battlefield AI, and companies actively selling military technology to Israel. 💀 Edited August 26 by iAmToton Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 5 minutes ago, BloodyM said: If what I am reading is true, this is super disappointing. I hope the info out there isn't right. Lightspeed, one of Outer Bio’s backers, has a major Israeli operation and a huge portfolio of Israeli tech. It also backs Helsing, the European AI warfare company, and Castelion, a literal weapons manufacturer developing mass-produced hypersonic strike missiles for the Pentagon. Lightspeed has invested in Castelion from its earliest rounds and in every round since. Castelion just raised another $1 BILLION to scale its hypersonic Blackbeard missile and longer-range strike systems. And then there’s Liquid 2, another Outer Bio investor, whose own portfolio includes Anduril, the $61B military-tech company building autonomous weapons, drones, surveillance and battlefield command systems. Anduril is now actively trying to establish operations in Israel and sell its technology to the Israeli Ministry of Defense. Meanwhile, Lightspeed’s Israeli ecosystem is deeply intertwined with the country’s military-tech pipeline, particularly the Unit 8200 intelligence/cyber ecosystem. That military-to-startup pipeline is one of the defining features of Israeli tech. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 So no, this does NOT prove Gaga or Outer Bio is directly funding Israel or the IDF. That would be a leap. But she’s taking money from an investor network deeply entangled with the defense industry, and Outer Bio is now another company in that portfolio ecosystem. 💀 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowLoris 1,251 Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 It's not the AI thing that bothers me (because it's being used for research, and a lot of people don't know that scientific AI is not the same as generative AI like chatGPT).... It's moreso the Israeli ties this project has that puts a baaaad taste in my mouth. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Lightspeed, one of Outer Bio’s investors, is also a major investor in Helsing, a European defence-tech company developing AI-powered battlefield systems, combat drones and autonomous military technology. And Helsing’s other major backer is Daniel Ek, Spotify’s founder,whose investment firm Prima Materia led its €600 million funding round. Ek is also Helsing’s chairman. Remember the Spotify scandal a few months ago, when people were cancelling their subscriptions over this? 👀 Gaga’s Outer Bio and Spotify’s Daniel Ek are connected through Helsing, a company developing AI and autonomous technology for modern warfare. The same Vulture Capitalist network backing Gaga’s biotech venture is also backing the military-AI company backed by Spotify’s founder. https://www.castelion.com/news/series-c/ https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/german-defence-start-up-helsing-raises-600-million-euros-latest-investment-round-2025-06-17/ The financial network overlap is scarily real. 💀 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SleepingSun 1,745 Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 (edited) I hate everything about this. But especially the people going off about how unethical the skin research is are super annoying. The real problem lies in the investors and their ties to inhumane institutions. Edited August 26 by SleepingSun One second I'm a troll, then suddenly the troll is me.
