“Safe Superintelligence raised $5 billion from Nvidia. The company is described only as "a research startup focused on building safe, advanced artificial intelligence systems." This is pre-product, pre-revenue by conventional definitions, yet it attracted a check larger than most late-stage growth funds deploy in a year.”
