we keep talking about scaling models, but memory might be one of the bigger constraints underneath all of it.
Volantis is taking a different route by using optics to move data much farther across the package than electrical interconnects can.
the bigger idea is not just speed.
Excited to announce Volantis's $88M Series A.
We are solving Al's memory bottleneck by using optics, enabling chips with huge amounts of fast & cheap memory.
By boosting both the memory bandwidth and capacity per chip by orders of magnitude, we enable ultra-fast inference (up
this is the first time the “AI on a video call” idea has actually felt interesting to me.
Griffin isn’t just waiting for you to stop talking and then replying.
it’s watching, listening, reacting, interrupting, noticing what you show it, and keeping the conversation moving at
Introducing Griffin, the first model to pass the video Turing test.
48% of people who talked to it live thought it was a real human. Previous systems have had a pass rate <3%. It is #1 on NVIDIA's benchmark for full-duplex AI video.
It’s the first Human Interaction Model (HIM).
The legal experience for startups is weirdly broken.
You’re paying a premium, but still waiting days for answers, re-explaining context, and wondering what every call is going to cost.
That founder frustration is exactly what @arceuslegal is going after.
$17M to build a law
I’m excited to announce that @arceuslegal is launching with $17M in funding, led by @greycroftvc, with participation from @craft_ventures, @spc, and others.
As a founder, I always hated how helpless I felt working with law firms.
I went through four or five different firms and
