Don't miss these A short overview of Redditâs IPO: This weekend on Equity, we filed quickly through the key financial results from Redditâs IPO filing. If you want to know more, we have a longer dig into the numbers here, notes on its AI revenues here, and how the company discusses risks to its model here. On the record with AI Now Instituteâs Amba Kak: Continuing TechCrunchâs ongoing series of interviews with women in AI, Dominic-Madori Davis sat down with Amba Kak to chat about whatâs happening in tech around the world, and how âthe AI boom [is] further entrenching the concentration of power within a very narrow section of the tech industry.â TechCrunch also interviewed Miranda Bogen recently, the founding director of the Center of Democracy and Technologyâs AI Governance Lab. Both of these are well worth your time. Stellantis is still besties with Waymo: The self-driving movement has hit a few potholes lately, but carmaker Stellantis is still working with self-driving company Waymo â an Alphabet project. So much so that Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares told TechCrunch that âthe companies are deepening [their] partnership.â Good. I hate driving. What to do when there are still no IPOs: Sure, Reddit is gearing up to go public, but itâs an old company that has already been sold once. For the huge number of younger startups looking for an exit, the barely open IPO window has kept out liquidity. Itâs no surprise then that investors are getting creative to generate liquidity for their own backers. Interview Kickstart raises $10M after self-funding for a decade: Companies that manage to run profitably for a long time and only choose to raise venture capital late in life are very interesting, because they often have very unique DNA as a result of their bootstrapped life. Interview Kickstart is one such: It decided to raise capital after its AI work last year saw lots of market uptake. The companyâs service helps tech pros learn new skills, and since everyone wants to be in AI today, itâs not a shock to see the company find new sources of growth. Spend all day inside? Worry not, Seaborough is here to light your path: I donât want to admit how much time I spend inside during the winter. Itâs cold outside and I donât love being chilly. Thankfully, tech is replacing some of the lost sunlight: Seaboroughâs near-infrared hardware could help folks get the light they need to stay healthy without having to put on shoes. Truecaller doubles down on India: India is the biggest market for Truecaller, a service that provides caller identities, which many use to avoid spam calls. TechCrunch reports that after rolling the service out in the United States, Truecall is bringing âcall recording and transcription for paid usersâ in India as well. |
