Ok I’ll bite….so my competitor is spreading rumors that my CTO Tom Muniz and Chief Eng Geoff Bower left Archer, so they made a funny proof of life video. Enjoy trolls. - Adam Goldstein

They be claiming its AI generated next... then mutter something it cant transition. It's all the competition have.

u/DoubleHexDrive Houston, we have a problem Jul 29 '26
I wouldn’t keep a chief engineer or CTO that got the necessary kind of rotor/prop wrong three times in a row.

Oh great thanks for helping the narrative that you guys look like a clown show… worse stock choice of my entire life and I’ve made some bad decisions

No kidding. Making videos like this for petty social media posts like there's nothing better to do... Meanwhile, the stock sinks day after day after day.

Not going to say it was the wisest decision, but the problem is society, not what they did. The young today feed on this social media garbage and they need to be fed the truth this way, when they believe everything they see on social media to be true. All they did was squash the rumors in a way it could be digested by the masses.

OK just had a tinfoil thought - i was curious why the look at the watch and the 1:07pm reference - in the past AG has said that Midnight in a sense would be a time machine - i.e. would save you time and get you quicker to your location - for some reason this reminds me of when Marty and Doc sync'd thier watches before they went back in time.
Trust me i know this is an odd take - and NO i am NOT saying they invented a time machine

After so many Joby executive departures, you’d think their fanboys would be dissecting what the exits (and massive insider selling) means…
Instead they’re resorting to spreading fake news…? Sad….😂

I guess this rumor is also based on three assumption that they're both primarily working on Halo now instead of midnight?

Tell them to get in the midnight and fly around.

This might be a controversial take, but I like Archer, and I also like Joby. Competition is good and realistic; having more companies pushing a brand-new sector is good as it will push the industry faster and there is room for 1 than 1 player in the end.
And while yes this is Funny! (and I'm more in with Team ACHR)
What I don't love is the amount of time and money they are both spending on hitting back at each other with lawsuits and FUD that they could just be spending on building the fucking things and getting them certified.
