This is a short narrated YouTube video (uploaded by LARRUZ on Jan 9, 2024) that tells the business-origin story of Ryan Peterson: how leaking the iPhone 3G launch put his company Import Genius on the map (leading to "tens of millions" in revenue), and how he later founded Flexport, which grew rapidly (700 clients and a $300M valuation within three years) and is today valued at over $8 billion. The video closes by noting Peterson used Delphi AI to create a digital "clone" of himself from uploaded media to interact with audiences.

Controversial move. He posted his discovery on the Import Genius website. Turns out he leaked the launch of the new iPhone 3G before Steve Jobs could announce it, making Jobs furious. The stunt put Import Genius on the map, and the company went on to generate tens of millions in revenue in the next few years. By 2013, Ryan moved on to his most lucrative project yet. With a vision to do for freight shipping what FedEx did for parcel delivery, Ryan launched Flexport. Just three years later, Flexport had 700 corporate clients and a valuation of 300 million. Today, the company is valued at over $8 billion. Did you know that Ryan Peterson recently made a clone of himself using a new platform called Delphi? He managed to replicate himself by simply uploading a few videos, podcasts, and blog posts. Now he has a whole new way to interact with his audience. Visit Delphi AI now to clone yourself.
