00:00Is there fundamental growth? This is vindicating this sort of 50 billion, or is it on the backing that she was there in such a leadership position over at OpenAI?
00:10I mean, it's a very young company and they have released a product.
00:14So it is possible that they're seeing a lot of traction that they haven't spoken about publicly yet for their product.
00:19It's called Tinker and it helps people and companies fine tune AI systems.
00:25But it's not it's not clear how much growth they could actually have.
00:29Right. If they've been around for less than a year. So it's pretty tremendous that they'd be in talks for this kind of money and valuation.
00:35When we broke the story, people on social media kind of blew up and they were saying, oh, that would be twenty five billion dollars per blog post because the company has only ever done two blog posts.
00:46But we did get the sense that this is Mira Marati, right, that she is out there talking to investors about this.
00:53It's her. She's the face of it. Explain to our audience who she is, why she's important.
00:58And I guess the intellectual capital that she gives that place.
01:04Sure. So Marati has been in the tech industry for a long time.
01:09She has been at OpenAI or had been at OpenAI for a number of years and was an executive there.
01:15So she was at the company through before things sort of like exploded with the brief ousting and rehiring of Sam Altman.
01:24And in fact, she was very, very briefly named CEO during that whole debacle.
01:29So she has a lot of experience dealing with crisis and also with a company that's grown very, very quickly in AI.
01:36And she has attracted a tremendous roster of talent at this company.
01:41Yeah. Dig into that talent, Rachel, because she actually drew over with her an awful lot of ex-OpenAI, well, actual co-founders came with her.
01:49Absolutely. Yes. Quite a number of early employees.
01:54She has one of the co-founding employees over there, John Shulman, with her.
02:01And also there are people advising the company that used to work at OpenAI.
02:05So it's a very deep bench of experience from that company, but also from other companies as well.
02:10But OpenAI in particular, there was quite an exodus of talent from that company to her company.
02:16So today.
02:17Now Let's see.
02:17There's a very deepness.
02:26We can start going into one of the three kind of rules and we will address the company, but it will be.
02:28So let's go think of some sort of things.
02:29We'll see what happens soon, so let's go forisha.
02:31So let's go for sure.
02:34Yeah.
02:34We'll see you next time.
02:38So let's go for it.
02:42We'll see you next time.
