AI video‑generation startup Runway announced a $315 million Series E financing round that lifted its valuation to $5.3 billion. The new capital will fund the pre‑training of next‑generation world models and expand the company’s research, engineering, and go‑to‑market teams. Runway’s latest model, Gen 4.5, delivers high‑definition video from text prompts with native audio, long‑form generation, character consistency, and advanced editing tools, outperforming competing offerings from Google and OpenAI on key benchmarks. The company also broadened its compute capacity through a partnership with CoreWeave and is seeing growing interest from gaming and robotics sectors. Leia mais →

Elon Musk is facing a legal challenge over the way damages were calculated in his investment dispute with OpenAI. A financial economist, Dr. Wazzan, was hired to determine how much Musk should receive after contributing $38 million, roughly 60 percent of OpenAI's seed funding. Musk’s filing claims Wazzan considered non‑monetary contributions such as recruiting staff and lending prestige. Microsoft, a major partner of OpenAI, argues that Wazzan’s math improperly doubled the value of the nonprofit arm, inflating Musk’s claim. The controversy centers on whether the calculations follow standard contractual and economic principles. Leia mais →

Meta has completed a high‑profile acquisition of Manus, an AI startup famed for its custom research and website‑building agents. Valued at more than $2 billion, the deal marks one of the largest purchases of a company emerging from China’s AI ecosystem. Manus, originally known as Butterfly Effect, describes itself as “the first general AI agent,” drawing on models such as Anthropic’s Claude 3.5 Sonnet and Alibaba’s Qwen to automate tasks ranging from market research to coding. The startup, now based in Singapore after laying off most of its Beijing staff, claims to serve millions of users and generate over $100 million in annualized revenue just eight months after launch.
