Despite marketing themselves as promising something new, AI startups still have many of the same questions as startups of the past. The question is, how do you know if you’ve achieved the holy grail of product-market fit? Product-market fit has been extensively studied for many years. Entire books have been written about how to master this technique. But like many other things, AI is upending established conventions. “Honestly, this couldn’t be more different from every playbook we’ve all been taught in technology in the past,” Ann Bordetsky, a partner at New Enterprise Associates, told a standing-room-only audience at TechCrunch Disrupt…

Paramount reported a combined pre-merger and post-merger loss of 12 cents per share last quarter. Analysts polled by LSEG had expected earnings of 38 cents per share.

According to Bank of America, the stock market is full of undervalued companies that investors should pay attention to. Hyperscalar tech companies and other high-flying stocks tied to artificial intelligence are driving the U.S. stock market to record highs this year.

The top five companies in the S&P 500 are all tech giants, accounting for about 30% of…
Masayoshi Son’s popularity is middling. The SoftBank founder’s career is littered with eyebrow-raising gambles, each one looking more outrageous than the last. His latest move, to cash out all of his $5.8 billion in NVIDIA stock to go all-in on AI, surprised the business world on Tuesday, but maybe he shouldn’t.
