I believe the subject of the article does not meet WP:GNG due to not receiving significant coverage in reliable secondary sources. None of the sources referenced by the article meet both these criteria - there are many citations either to primary sources or to reliable sources that only briefly mention the subject.
After searching online for sources:
- Google web search shows no significant coverage from reliable sources in first 3 pages
- Google Books shows the following results:
- Zero to AI by Valigi and Mauro: Some passing coverage in a section, a few pages long, about the technical details of Trombetti's work.
- How AI Ate the World by Chris Stokel-Walker. Passing mention of the subject in the context of an opinion he expressed on one occasion and a discussion of its merits.
- Handbook of the Language Industry, published by De Gruyter. Even briefer mention of the same event.
- Some more works that cite the subject as a source.
- Google News shows a few podcasts and press releases, but no secondary sources.
- Google Scholar shows about 700 citations, 400 to the subject's academic work. WP:NPROF is questionable.
Additionally, the tone of the article borders on WP:PROMO, and recent events appear to indicate undisclosed paid editing on a topic closely related to the article's subject. --Richard Yin (talk) 02:21, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

- Not sure yet. Certainly no pass of WP:Prof#C1 in a very high cited field. There is a lot of grandiose puffery of his entrepreneurial activities that other editors will have to assess. Xxanthippe (talk) 05:01, 26 December 2024 (UTC),

- Delete. The GScholar profile[1] shows h-index of 5, certainly not enough to pass WP:PROF. The case for WP:BIO notability as an entrepreneur also appears weak, per the nominator's arguments. In any case, the article is so promotional as to border on G11. Nsk92 (talk) 13:35, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
