  • Wayve secures $1.5B Series D at $8.6B valuation

    Another major milestone in @wayve_ai's history. Proud to say we’ve secured $1.5 billion Series D investment at $8.6 billion valuation. We started a decade ago with a contrarian technical thesis: that self-driving is an AI problem, and Embodied AI will enable autonomy to scale without rules, HD-maps and using mass-produced hardware. Now we're entering commercialisation, we're taking a contrarian commercial strategy too, selecting the business model with the largest opportunity to scale. We're not selling our own cars, which limits scale to one brand. We're not operating our own fleets, which limits autonomy to city-by-city expansion. We're licensing autonomy to any vehicle, anywhere. This new business model is only possible now because we've built a general purpose AI driver, which is flexible to work with any vehicle architecture and proven to drive all around the world. This unlocks a high margin software licensing model, which we're now excited to be deploying with global partners with the strength of this new funding round. Thank you to our new and returning financial investors for backing our vision all the way: @EclipseVentures, @balderton, @SoftBank, @OTPPinfo, @BaillieGifford, @BritishBBank, @IcehouseVenture and @Schroders among other global institutional investors. We're deepening our partnerships with @Microsoft and @nvidia to build and deploy Embodied AI at global scale, and with @Uber, who are announcing supervised robotaxi trials in 10 cities around the world, starting with London this year. To top it off, three top-10 global automakers across Europe, Japan and USA are backing and believing in our technology for consumer vehicles and robotaxis: @MercedesBenz, @Nissan and @Stellantis. I’ve always believed that our end-to-end AI approach would lead the way in autonomy. This latest investment and the endorsement that comes with it make me believe that the industry is also now converging on that idea too. What's next? We have a busy next few years of commercial delivery: supervised robotaxi trials around the world in 2026 and consumer vehicle sales from 2027. Thank you to the incredible Wayve team for making this all possible. Check out all details here: wayve.ai/press/series-d/

    Releasing a 24B-A2B model on the same day as Qwen3.5-35B-A3B is NOT great timing 🥲 Qwen (@Alibaba_Qwen) 🚀 Introducing the Qwen 3.5 Medium Model Series Qwen3.5-Flash · Qwen3.5-35B-A3B · Qwen3.5-122B-A10B · Qwen3.5-27B ✨ More intelligence, less compute. • Qwen3.5-35B-A3B now surpasses Qwen3-235B-A22B-2507 and Qwen3-VL-235B-A22B — a reminder that better architecture, data quality, and RL can move intelligence forward, not just bigger parameter counts. • Qwen3.5-122B-A10B and 27B continue narrowing the gap between medium-sized and frontier models — especially in more complex agent scenarios. • Qwen3.5-Flash is the hosted production version aligned with 35B-A3B, featuring: – 1M context length by default – Official built-in tools 🔗 Hugging Face: huggingface.co/collections/Q… 🔗 ModelScope: modelscope.cn/collections/Qw… 🔗 Qwen3.5-Flash API: modelstudio.console.alibabac… Try in Qwen Chat 👇 Flash: chat.qwen.ai/?models=qwen3.5… 27B: chat.qwen.ai/?models=qwen3.5… 35B-A3B: chat.qwen.ai/?models=qwen3.5… 122B-A10B: chat.qwen.ai/?models=qwen3.5… Would love to hear what you build with it. — https://nitter.net/Alibaba_Qwen/status/2026339351530188939#m

  • Fiction About Future Markets Impacts Investment Decisions

    Any of us can write fiction about what the future will be like. Maybe it is good that fiction about one possible bad scenario is moving markets. Investors should be careful of investing in companies that do not want to change. But most unimaginative fiction fails to project the
