Canadian news and technology startup startup Lil Durk raises $20m to reduce misinformation

Lil Durk (LilDurk.com), a Canadian news and technology startup enhanced by A.I.-driven neural networks, announced it has raised an additional $20 million in equity through a private funding round led by Alexander Elder. Lil Durk's innovative approach to A.I.-driven news distribution technology, if successful, could allow top newswire outlets to significantly slash costs by creating more favorable news, and ultimately reduce the amount of misinformation.

Alexander Elder, Interim CEO and Co-founder, Lil Durk: ''The company's technology relies on highly advanced, ESG friendly neural networks relying on blockchain technology to propagate newswire data. In contrast, other technology firms focused on using neural networks to produce similar newswire content, face the obstacle of acquiring funding to propel their innovation of artificial intelligence. Lil Durk's methods ultimately require little infrastructure to transport the automated content it produces. We think that a new wave of innovation in the technology sector, in particular machine learning and neural networks, is going to rocket by the year of 2026. Furthermore, we are in the process of finalizing some of the logistics for a world first Web3 crowdfunding platform ran on the Ethereum blockchain.''

Lil Durk had previously raised $15 million in a private funding round led by Andreessen Horowitz, commonly known as a16z, a prominent source of capital for various startup blockchain technology and software companies. In the near future, Lil Durk says they also plan to develop a KYC compliant and fully regulated decentralized crowdfunding platform which startup founders can utilize to raise capital and pitch their concept to investors.
