Taylor Swift unseated as worlds youngest self-made female billionaire by a hard-partying, 30-year-old college dropout

Taylor Swift has been unseated as the world’s youngest self-made female billionaire, according to Forbes — by a 30-year-old, hard-partying college dropout who has reaped a windfall from the artificial intelligence boom.Lucy Guo — a self-professed workaholic who rides an electric skateboard to work when she’s not being chauffeured by an assistant — has a net worth of $1.3 billion, according to Forbes’ list of America’s Richest Self-Made Women released on Wednesday.Guo took Swift’s title of world’s youngest self-made woman billionaire in April, when it was reported that Scale AI — the firm she co-founded with Alexandr Wang in 2016 when she was just 21 and he was 19 — had been valued at $25 billion in a deal set to close by June 1.The tender offer has not been finalized yet, but it is expected to close at that valuation in a few weeks, a source familiar with the matter told The Post.The daughter of Chinese immigrants, Guo was raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, where she quickly picked up coding in middle school.She dropped out of Carnegie Mellon University as she clinched a $100,000 entrepreneurial scholarship bankrolled by billionaire investor Peter Thiel.She took a job in 2015 at Quora, where she met Wang, and later worked at Snapchat for a brief period as the company’s first female designer.At Scale AI, Guo ran the operations and production design teams – until Wang, who took the chief executive position, reportedly fired her after the two sparred over how the company should be run.
“We had a difference of opinion but I am proud of what Scale AI has accomplished,” Guo told the tech news site The Information last year.Still, Guo kept most of her 5% stake in Scale AI, which is worth approximately $1.2 billion, according to Forbes.The firm labels data used by tech giants like OpenAI and Alphabet to train their chatbots.
