Hi, AI Futurists!
Welcome to the inaugural edition of our Week in AI series, posted every Sunday.
We’ll succinctly deliver the top AI news and tutorials, keeping you up-to-date, saving you time, and helping you learn about AI from the best in the field. Follow along each week to stay informed about the latest developments in the world of AI.
The Big Money is Pouring into AI, Fast
Just this week, Perplexity AI, the popular answer engine, has become a unicorn in less than 1.5 years after its founding. Cognition Labs, the inventor of the first AI autonomous software engineer, is now valued at $2 billion after less than 6 months of its founding. xAI of Elon Musk just raised $6 billion at a pre-money valuation of $18 billion.
There may be skeptics about whether this is somewhat similar to the internet boom in 2000. We believe it is not. AI has the ability to affect all aspects of our lives and all these companies have the ability to lead the AI economy in their fields.
Without further ado, let’s get started.
