In a blockbuster $113 billion deal, Elon Musk's AI firm xAI has acquired the social media giant X (formerly Twitter), valuing xAI at $80 billion and X at $33 billion, with Musk claiming the merger will 'unlock immense potential' by fusing AI with X's global reach.
Waymo's self-driving cars have proven remarkably safer than human drivers, experiencing far fewer crashes and injuries, with insurance claims about 90% lower than expected for human-driven vehicles over the same miles, despite being involved in dozens of crashes largely caused by human error.
The groundbreaking AI system 'Aardvark' is poised to revolutionize weather forecasting with its ability to replace traditional methods through a single, faster, more accurate, and computationally efficient model, promising enhanced accuracy and accessibility to developing regions.
CoreWeave, an AI computing solutions provider, adjusted its IPO pricing amid market volatility, raising $1.5 billion at a $19 billion valuation by pricing shares at $40, below the expected $47-$55 range, to align with buyer interest amidst macroeconomic challenges.
CoreWeave, a tech company initially eyeing a $30 billion IPO valuation, has scaled back its ambitions, now targeting a valuation closer to its $23 billion private market level and slashing its planned fundraising by half to $1.5 billion.
Nvidia's substantial $250 million order for CoreWeave's AI chip-powered computing services is expected to bolster the latter's $40 per share IPO bid, signaling a potential revival for the sluggish IPO market.
Raising alarming privacy concerns, DOGE employees have gained unchecked access to sensitive government databases containing personal and financial information, bypassing laws and protocols, according to federal judges who deemed this level of access unjustified and risky for Americans' privacy.
