AI's energy bottleneck isn't electricity. It's getting power to the right place at the right time. x.com/vkhosla/status…
Congrats to @berman66 and the team on @runlayer's $30M Series A. Enterprises want to go all in on AI, but the moment agents start acting, most teams can't see what they're doing or stop one going rogue. Runlayer is the golden path: enablement, security, and control in one platform. After backing the team at the seed, we're doubling down because governance isn't a tax on AI adoption. We see it as the unlock. Read the feature in @FortuneMagazine from @LilyMaeLazarus 👇
Last week, @ScaledCognition announced its $100M Series A. We led the round because in any industry where an agent takes a real action, a wrong answer is the only thing that counts - and they've built the model that won't give you one. The two Dans have taken the harder road, building a new architecture instead of putting a layer on top of a frontier model, to fix AI's reliability problem. Over the next year, companies running on their models are on track to automate more than a billion customer interactions. Congrats to @roth_dan, @profdanklein, and the entire team.
Most AI today has learned to see the world. The harder and more valuable problem is teaching it to predict what happens when someone acts in it. @gen_intuition is building the large action foundation models that do exactly that, trained on billions of clips from over 17M monthly active users on Medal. Congrats to the team on their $320M Series A. Large action models are the next big leap, and this category will produce several of the most valuable companies in AI. We're backing General Intuition because it's built to lead them.
Most enterprise AI is a co-pilot that makes you incrementally faster. @conveyAI built something different: AI teammates that own the outcome and run operations unattended. Over a million hours of work already done and customers like NBCUniversal, Samsara, and TelevisaUnivision. Congrats to @rohanbchopra and the team on their $38M Series A! We're proud to have backed Convey at the seed and are doubling down because they're building the AI workforce enterprises actually trust.
In tax, law, finance, and healthcare, a wrong answer isn't a hallucination. It's a liability. We're proud to have led @PramaanaLabs' $27M seed and to be backing a team building AI that's provably correct, not probabilistically correct: every output ships with mathematical proof. x.com/ranjan_vittal/…
New from @vkhosla in the @FT: "We will need a new tax code for the wealth AI creates." A technology optimist's case that the disruption is coming faster than most believe... and that the policy framework isn't ready. Read the full piece: giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/ac…
The future of mining, geothermal, and carbon storage starts with better subsurface intelligence. Congrats to @Terra_AI_HQ on building the AI-native platform for understanding what’s underground. Excited to continue our partnership with the team as they bring AI to one of the x.com/Terra_AI_HQ/st…
A landmark day for KV: @vkhosla named #1 on the @Forbes Midas List, 25 years after topping the inaugural edition. First at the birth of the internet. Now at AI’s defining moment. This year, he’s recognized for the first institutional check into @OpenAI – when others saw a
“When the cost of defense drops by an order of magnitude, the entire calculus of security changes. Exaforce is the architecture that makes that possible.” @vkhosla on why we backed @exaforce 🚀 x.com/exaforceAI/sta…
Thrilled to partner with you @grai_fm! 🥳 x.com/grai_fm/status…
“The biggest and baddest application of BCI is if you can talk to your computer by thinking about it.” @vkhosla on our investment in @sabicap -- building a thought-to-text interface that could redefine how we interact with computers. x.com/rahulchhabra07…
The next wave of robotics will be trained on the real world. @rhodaai is using millions of internet videos to teach robots how to operate in complex industrial environments. “The real world is messy, complex and being able to actually work on production lines is much, much
“The deepest value isn’t physics. It’s human intuition. A physics engine models how a drone moves; it can’t model how a skilled operator reacts when surprised. In surgery, it’s the feel for how the tissue responds to the scalpel. Train on human decision-making and you capture
Congrats to @Guild_ai on their Series A — universal by design and neutral across models, vendors, and frameworks. Excited to support the team turning agents into shared production infrastructure. x.com/GuildAI/status…
Huge congrats to the team at @ScienceCorp_! Proud to back this mission to restore vision and push the frontier of neural engineering and BCI innovation. Onward. 🚀 x.com/ScienceCorp_/s…
