Who is Anna Delvey’s techno-bro beau based on in ‘Inventing Anna?’

Netflix show about her, she has a ridiculous tech entrepreneur boyfriend.On the series, which stars Julia Garner in the title role and is out Friday, Anna’s on-screen love interest is Chase Sikorski (Saamer Usmani, “Succession”).

Chase is introduced to the audience in episode 2, when he’s giving a Ted Talk about the potential to “cloud source” your dreams.

A tech entrepreneur, he has an app called “Wake,” that never gets off the ground, and he uses the cringeworthy slogan, “everyone else is Woke but Chase is Wake.” As he explains in his Ted Talk, dreams are filled with “meaning and magic” but when we wake up in the morning, “All of that knowledge just dissolves … Imagine, what if instead of losing that time, you could tap into it?

Could we be more connected?” The sequence feels like a satire of Silicon Valley culture, and it’s true that Chase and his idea to “cloud source dreams” are fictional.
