Welcome back to DELVE SHIPMAS - five days of major launches to modernize compliance. So far, we've launched AI copilot, AI VRM, AI security questionnaire Chrome extension, and today - we're launching:
Nvidia has signed a licensing deal with Groq for its AI-inferencing technology. Groq, founded in 2016, makes chips and software to run AI models. Its language processing unit chips are built for inference, the process that AI models use to generate content. The company's chips can be produced and deployed faster and use less power than GPUs.
Larry and David Ellison bought Paramount this summer, and now they are targeting Warner Bros. Discovery with a $108 billion hostile bid. Larry Ellison personally guaranteed $40.4 billion for the offer. If the deal works out, it could have enormous consequences for the news and entertainment industries.

SpaceX's Starlink satellite service has surpassed 9 million active customers and is adding over 20,000 new users per day. Serving in over 155 countries, territories, and markets, the Starlink satellite constellation now has more than 9,000 low-Earth-orbit satellites. The growth rate reflects the rising demand for broadband in underserved regions. SpaceX may be positioning itself for an initial public offering as soon as next year, and Elon Musk has suggested in the past that Starlink could have its own IPO in the future.
A virtual cell is a model that lets researchers model diseases and treatments. Tied with the push for virtual cells are efforts to build a foundational model, similar to AlphaFold. Researchers will need to create their own datasets to answer specific questions to be successful in the field. This will require models that have the ability to explicitly identify, isolate, and subtract confounding noise.

Git was designed to be a distributed collaboration tool for source code. It wasn't designed to be used as a database for package registries. Package managers who use git as an index all had to build workarounds as they grew, causing pain for users and maintainers. Package registries need fast point queries for metadata.
Most new financial services companies will be built on stablecoin rails in the next decade. Stablecoin rails unlock programmable money, access to internet capital markets where genuinely new financial primitives are being built every day, and the ability to let agents manage funds with real guarantees. This is an opportunity to rethink what financial services should actually look like. Most of the industry is still running on the 2015 fintech playbook on new rails.
OpenAI employees have reportedly started discussions on different ways to prioritize sponsored information in ChatGPT. The company is considering giving priority placement to sponsored results when users are clearly talking about buying a product, showing ads based on user information, or a sponsored sidebar that shows ads relevant to the conversation. OpenAI is wary about turning off users, as they might not trust a chatbot that injects ads into sensitive conversations. The pressure to increase revenue is building on OpenAI, which signed a flurry of massive deals this year that it will have to pay for.
Mini-frameworks are custom frameworks that small teams develop on top of shared stacks.
Large software systems are often very poorly understood, even by people most in a position to understand them, so the ability to accurately answer questions about large software systems is extremely valuable.
AST's BlueBird 6 has a massive antenna and processing that will allow it to support more than 2,000 cells per satellite, with 120Mbps of bandwidth per cell, to unmodified phones on the ground.
