Tech entrepreneur Lucy Guo, 30, recently dethroned Taylor Swift as the youngest self-made female billionaire on the planet. But don’t expect her to be popping Champagne bottles.
“I feel like the title changes every year,” Guo told The Post about the Forbes magazine ranking. “It means almost nothing to me personally.”
Guo’s billion-dollar bounty comes from Scale AI, the artificial intelligence data-labeling startup she launched in 2016 with Alexandr Wang, when she was just 21. She left two years later but held onto an estimated 5% stake — a small slice that turned into a massive windfall this April when insider shares valued Scale AI at $25 billion, making Guo’s cut worth an estimated $1.2 billion.

So, yeah. She’s officially a billionaire, but doesn’t feel like one.
