An AI startup founder secretly pleaded guilty last year to insider trading. Arya Bolurfrushan participated in a scheme involving law firm attorneys tipping traders. He agreed to a plea deal recommending two years in prison and forfeiture. Bolurfrushan traded on confidential merger information, earning significant profits. Nine other defendants also pleaded guilty before indictments were announced.
