@the_sambu I wish the fight was for local manufacturing v imports. I can also smell politics from a distance. 2021 there was downtown,kirinyaga road against Uhuru
I dont think we are ready for the demands in energy that is going to hit the country. The individual household solar installations are a drop in the ocean.
Jeff Bezos just came out of retirement. His first CEO role since leaving Amazon. And he's building something nobody expected. 🤯
It's called Prometheus. $12 billion raised. $41 billion valuation. Backed by JPMorgan, BlackRock, Goldman Sachs, and Bezos himself.
150 employees. $273 million per person. That's how much investors are betting on this.
But here's what makes it different from every other AI company.
Prometheus isn't building another chatbot. It's not generating text or
images.
It's building what Bezos calls an "artificial general engineer" AI that designs jet engines, optimizes manufacturing, and prototypes physical products.
LLMs learned from the internet's text. Prometheus is learning from the physical world physics, simulations, engineering data, manufacturing processes.
In Bezos' own words: "Something that takes 100 engineers 10 years to build we want to make that 10 engineers, one year."
His co-CEO is Vik Bajaj, former Google X executive who worked with Sergey Brin on what became Waymo.
No ties to Amazon. No ties to Blue Origin. Bezos said "it deserves a dedicated team obsessed with this one thing."
While everyone is racing to build the best AI for words, Bezos is quietly building AI for the physical world.
That might be the bigger bet.
SoftBank invested $41 billion into OpenAI.
Then tried to borrow $10 billion against that stake.
Banks said that’s too much.
Cut it to $6 billion.
Banks still said no.
SoftBank shares dropped nearly 10% this morning. 
The banks don’t believe OpenAI is worth $852 billion.
The same OpenAI losing $14 billion a year.
That just filed for a $1 trillion IPO.
SoftBank needed the loan to keep funding OpenAI.
To fund the company they already own 13% of.
With money borrowed against the stake they already own.
Masayoshi Son previously lost $70 billion on WeWork.
Called it the most valuable company in the world.
The banks remember WeWork.
