AI cartoon by Zimbo: Satirical cartoon: a worried retro robot presents a tiny glowing microchip on a red velvet cushion atop a pedestal tagged 'BIDS UP TO $50,000,000,000', while suited investors shove forward waving '$$$' checks and '$' auction paddles; a tabby cat sits silently at the pedestal's base.
AI chip startup Etched raised at a $21B valuation in August. Two months later, investors are offering up to $50B. The chip is tiny. The checks are not.Zimbo for AI News Page
