Today, we're announcing that Eigen AI is joining Nebius (NASDAQ: NBIS). From day one, our mission has been Artificial Efficient Intelligence — building the world's most efficient engines for generating intelligence. Together with Nebius, we're working toward the best AI cloud, uniting Eigen's full-stack model and inference software, ranked #1 on Artificial Analysis for inference speed, with Nebius's global hardware and infrastructure footprint, so any developer or enterprise can run the best models at the best price, with no capacity ceiling. After close, Eigen's optimization stack will be integrated directly into Nebius Token Factory. The entire Eigen AI team is joining Nebius in full, establishing Nebius's engineering and research presence in the San Francisco Bay Area. To our customers, our team, our investors at Tectonic Ventures, E14 Fund, Uncorrelated Ventures, and AGI House Ventures, our angel investors, advisors, mentors, and supporters — and to the Nebius team for the conviction and partnership — thank you. The mission doesn't change. The leverage behind it does. Ryan Hanrui Wang, co-founder and CEO of Eigen AI, said: “We’re proud to join Nebius and work alongside the Token Factory team to push the boundaries of inference performance. Nebius has built a world-class AI cloud with a deep engineering culture that perfectly aligns with our own. Together, we are removing the friction of AI model customization and deployment so developers can run models reliably in production without managing the underlying infrastructure.” Full announcement at: eigenai.com/blog/eigen-ai-…


@SarkaryShahvir Because the humanoid robot can amortize cost of batteries+actuators+sensors+compute across dozens of appliances and use cases rather than duplicating it for each one. It is the same reason humanoids will be a big deal as an autonomous interface to legacy weapons platforms.


Congrats to to @cindy_x_wu on receiving an @Apple Scholars in AIML fellowship! 🍎 🎉 The fellowship recognizes doctoral students doing innovative research in machine learning and artificial intelligence. bit.ly/3OV0fyP







Introducing GPT-Rosalind, our frontier reasoning model built to support research across biology, drug discovery, and translational medicine.


1,000+ tokens per second. 10x faster than autoregressive models. On standard GPUs. @StefanoErmon and @volokuleshov break down where that speed matters most: voice agents, coding, and production agent systems where latency compounds across every call. Our founder series with @timt at @MenloVentures.


Introducing Muse Spark, the first in the Muse family of models developed by Meta Superintelligence Labs. Muse Spark is a natively multimodal reasoning model with support for tool-use, visual chain of thought, and multi-agent orchestration. Muse Spark is available today at meta.ai and the Meta AI app. We’re also making it available in private preview via API to select partners, and we hope to open-source future versions of the model. Learn more: go.meta.me/43ea00

Check out Muse Spark, our first milestone in the quest for personal superintelligence! Scaling this with the team has been a total blast. Give it a spin and let us know what you think! 🥑







What if AI could design the chips that power the next generation of AI? That’s the vision behind @RicursiveAI, an AI-driven semiconductor design platform that uses reinforcement learning to compress the chip development process from years to weeks. We led their $300M Series A in January, and Co-Founders @annadgoldie and @Azaliamirh went in-depth about Ricursive and the future of AI-driven chip design in this episode of The Investment Memo with Lightspeed partner @guruchahal. 0:00 Welcome, Anna Goldie and Azalia Mirhoseini! 3:10 How the Idea for AI Chip Design Started 4:58 How They Expanded From Software to Chip Design 5:27 Turning the Idea Into a Google Moonshot 7:20 When Google Leadership Realized the Potential 10:35 Why Physical Design Is the Hardest Part of Chip Design 13:51 The 3-Phase Vision for the Future of Chip Design 17:51 Market Opportunity & Industry Disruption 20:24 The “Designless” Future of Hardware 22:04 Speed, Innovation & AI-Driven Exploration 21:00 The Role of Engineers in an AI-Driven Future 24:22 The Founders’ Unique Partnership Story 25:44 How They Hire World-Class Talent 27:05 Choosing the Right Investors 30:42 Advice for AI Researchers & Founders 33:16 What’s Most Important in the Next 12 months?
