Shoe company Allbirds just announced that it's planning to
- Sell all of its brands and footwear assets
- Rebrand the company to Newbird AI
- Use a $50M convertible financing facility to "acquire high-performance GPU assets"
Article reads incoherent to me. Wouldnโt be suprised if @OpenAI refutes these claims. Also, having some rando announce it on axios is just terrible PR
