Self-proclaimed workaholic Lucy Guo has overtaken pop sensation Swift – with her new title potentially sparking Bad Blood between the two.

Guo earned her riches through a huge windfall from the artificial intelligence boom.

She has an eye-watering net worth – valued at $1.3billion according to Forbes‘ list of America’s Richest Self-Made Women.

Guo officially took Swift’s crown as world’s youngest self-made woman billionaire in April.

It came after reports claimed that Scale AI – the tech company she co-founded with Alexandr Wang in 2016 – was valued at $25billion.

She was just 21 when she started the firm, while Wang was aged 19.

The multibillion-dollar valuation came as part of a deal which is set to close by June 1, according to The New York Post.

The daughter of Chinese immigrants, Guo was raised in the San Francisco Bay Area.

This young talent learned coding while in middle school but left Carnegie Mellon University after securing a $100,000 entrepreneur scholarship funded by billionaire investor Peter Thiel.

In 2015 she started work at Quora, where she met Wang.

She later worked for Snapchat for a short period, as the company’s first female designer.

After founding Scale AI, Guo ran their operations and production design teams.

However, the journey took a turn when Wang, the CEO, apparently dismissed her following a conflict regarding the company’s management direction.

Guo told The Information: “We had a difference of opinion but I am proud of what Scale AI has accomplished.”

The new youngest richest self-made billionaire kept her 5 per cent stake in Scale AI – a cut which is now worth approximately $1.2billion, according to Forbes.

The firm labels data used by tech giants like OpenAI and Alphabet in order to train chatbots.

The extraordinary billionaire now owns “a swanky apartment in Miami” and a house in Los Angeles.

But she has admitted to having an odd food habit.

The 30-year-old admitted that she buys groceries or cooks.

Instead, she exclusively orders all of her meals from delivery giant Uber Eats.

She has boasted always working at least eight hours a day when on holiday, and said that she takes two Barry’s bootcamp fitness classes per day.

But she reportedly maintains a work hard, play hard mentality by frequently attending raves and parties.

She told The New York Post in 2022: “A lot of people don’t like me because, honestly, I seem like an a–hole online.

“I would not like me on the internet.”

She added: “But I’ve made a lot of friends because I think people appreciate my savage personality.”

She is also reported to own a huge collection of Pokemon merchandise, which includes slippers, stuffed animals, artwork and a Swarovski-crystal necklace.

The billionaire now runs Passes, a content creation platform that has been monikered the “family-friendly version of OnlyFans”.

The firm claims to be able to “make millionaires” – by allowing creators to hold onto 90 per cent of their earnings.

Passes gained $40million last year in a Series A funding round according to Fortune.

The company are, however, now facing allegations that the platform allowed child pornography to spread, as part of a class action suit filed in February.

Inbetween founding Scale AI and Passes, Guo also started a small investment firm called Backend Capital.

On Forbes’ list of America’s Richest Self-Made Women, Guo came in at number 26, while Swift earned the 21st spot.

But pop icon Swift still holds the title for world’s richest female musician – with a net worth of $1.6billion.
