why did they raise 3 days ago? What's the benefit of doing this instead of going public right away? If it's just cash to pay for GPUs, can't they issue bonds or something?

You pretty much always do a late-stage private round shortly before an IPO, that is the standard. The goal of the late-stage funding round is to give a better idea of how much capital can be raised by the IPO. It helps reduce uncertainty about expectations of what the company is worth before going public.

Pump up the valuation baby.

IPO isn't really about "raising money for the company" any longer, unless one means raising the money in their wallets so they can take the money and run.

Conspiratorially, it seems like a shotgun attempt at undermining the supposed OpenAI IPO later this year.

Also filing an S-1 doesn't actually indicate that they intend to go public "immediately," it just gives them the option to go public (probably in the near future).

Would not recommend to send your chats to some provider on openrouter. IMO one should only use local models for this sort of data

That makes sense, I was thinking of that specfically right after I wrote it too. No controls once sent.

It's a great excuse to buy an M5 Pro.

That's not correct. You are expected to actually share a weekend and how you're handling it

Exactly, there's an episode covering it on Freakonomics Radio: https://freakonomics.com/podcast/in-a-driverless-world-who-l...

Search Engine covered it too: https://www.searchengine.show/the-trial-of-the-driverless-ca...

Tried it, and as usual

See antigravity subreddit, they never fixed it

Is it available for sale?
