Hi. My name is Angela and I work for Roy Bahat. A couple in-depth profiles have been written on Roy recently in Business Insider and Fast Company that offer more information about what he's famous for (early AI investments and speaking on organized workforces). I'd like to share a proposed draft here that adds a few sentences from these new sources (proposed additions are in bold) to add to the end of the Career section. Pinging @Cabrils:, who accepted the page at Articles for Creation back in May. Angela.Martin2023 (talk) 19:09, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
