AI has transformed software. Science is next, and science happens in a lab.
@warpsciences is out of stealth with $215M to build AI + robotics-powered chemistry labs that help researchers discover new medicines faster. Proud to back @kevinweil @dpatil @manohar_paluri and Sol Reisberg.

💥 Introducing Warp Sciences, a new company applying AI and robotics to help the world develop new medicines faster.
We’ve raised a $215M Series A led by @lightspeedvp to bring frontier AI out of the browser and into the lab, and build scientific capacity here in America.
I co-founded Warp with my long-time friend @dpatil, FAIR co-founder @manohar_paluri, and drug hunter Sol Reisberg. The early team is full of incredible people like @bkspears9, who helped achieve Q>1 fusion at LLNL.

Huge congrats to @humansand on launching Ampersand.
A model trained to collaborate, and measured on what people actually get done together over months, not single-turn benchmarks. That's the right thing to optimize for.

No one changes the world alone
Introducing Ampersand - the first model built for us. Ampersand is a collaborator trained to help people achieve their individual and collective goals. In multi-month simulations, users collaborating with Ampersand accomplished more than with Fable ls

From approximately 80MW committed in 2026 to a projected 580MW by 2027, Aolani is making a major push to expand its AI infrastructure footprint in Malaysia!
The addition of 500MW in AI data centre capacity is targeted to come online starting in the second half of 2027. These facilities will support its growing portfolio of AI factories and GPU deployments, serving global hyperscalers and AI-native companies.
We believe the real opportunity extends beyond building more data centres. By making high-performance compute more accessible to local enterprises, researchers, and startups, Malaysia has an opportunity to become not just a hub for AI infrastructure, but also a place where more AI innovation is built.

AI keeps getting better at completing individual tasks. With Ampersand, @humansand is introducing a model designed to act as a collaborator, helping people work toward shared goals.
Trained through simulations with Persimmon, humans&'s model of human behavior, Ampersand learns to consider the longer-term impact of its actions.
In multi-month simulations, users working with Ampersand made greater progress toward their long-term goals than those using other frontier models evaluated.
We're particularly interested in AI that understands not just what people ask for, but what they're ultimately trying to achieve.
We look forward to seeing how developers bring this approach to new applications. Explore Ampersand here: ampersand.humansand.ai/blog

Think about how much faster robotics could advance if we didn't have to teach every new robot from scratch.
That's the opportunity @dreamlabs_ai is pursuing. Founded by former NVIDIA robotics research leaders @jang_yoel, @GeYunhao, @scott_e_reed, and @youliangtan, the company has just emerged from stealth with US$90M in seed funding and the launch of Dream-1.
Dream-1 learns from videos of humans performing tasks and applies that knowledge across robots from different manufacturers. What previously took months of programming could now take minutes. The company already works with 20+ hardware partners.
And with Dream API now publicly available to developers worldwide, anyone can access this intelligence to turn camera feeds and plain-English instructions into robot actions, starting at US$3/hour.
We look forward to seeing how Dream-1's capabilities expand further. Congratulations to the Dream Labs team!
Start building at dreamlabs.ai.

Today, Dream Labs is coming out of stealth with Dream-1, a robot foundation model that controls bimanual robots it has never seen, on tasks it was never shown, in places it has never been, from $3/hour.
Dream API is live for everyone, today. 🧵

Building more capable AI doesn't always have to mean throwing more compute at the problem.
@Physion_Labs is demonstrating what's possible with NexTron, its AI training engine designed to make the process of training and fine-tuning large AI models faster and more memory-efficient, without requiring additional GPU hardware.
In benchmarks, NexTron achieved up to 20.9× higher training throughput than Microsoft DeepSpeed ZeRO-3 on identical H100 hardware. The team also fine-tuned a 180B-parameter model using just eight H100 GPUs, with comparable model quality across ten benchmarks.
We love seeing founders like Evelyn Qin Zhang and Bing Shuai challenge conventional thinking about how AI should advance. Physion Labs is a great example of why building smarter can be just as important as building bigger. Congratulations to the team on these incredible achievements!

Congrats @ElorianAI on releasing Glimpse! ✨
Glimpse is a new category of visual thinking model: a system that reasons about the physical world from what it sees.
On multimodal benchmarks, Glimpse attains frontier-level performance at the level of (+ sometimes exceeding) GPT-6 Astra and Claude Opus 5.5 while being substantially smaller & cheaper.
The Elorian team built Glimpse w/ only a few hundred GPUs, post-trained on an open weights base model.
@AndrewDai @yinfeiy @SethInternet @seojin_b Let's gooo!! 🚀🙌

Spent years watching models ace a single image and completely whiff on anything that moves or changes angle. Today we’re fixing that.
Try Glimpse now, our first visual thinking model with competitive frontier performance compared to Astra on key public visual reasoning benchmarks.

Congratulations to Mark Lim, George-Cristian Potrivitu, and the Aliena team on raising US$5.5M in Series A1 funding!
With sanctions disrupting Hall thruster supply chains and shortages delaying US defense satellite programs, reliable propulsion technology is becoming increasingly important. Aliena is positioning itself to meet this growing demand from satellite manufacturers and operators worldwide.
With its own test and production facility in Singapore, the team can produce up to 100 propulsion systems annually. Aliena is targeting delivery times of 12 months, compared to the industry average of 12 to 18 months, with ambitions to reduce this to six months or less.
We look forward to seeing more milestones from the team, including its expansion into Europe, where Aliena plans to establish an office by early 2027!

The AI industry has a massive compute efficiency problem. At Physion Labs, we think it's time to challenge it.
Today, we're sharing the technology behind NexTron, our world-intelligence training engine.
Our benchmarks on matched hardware:
⚡ Up to 20.9× SFT throughput vs. o 6.6× SFT throughput vs. Megatron (H200)
⚡ Up to 7.2× SFT throughput vs. Megatron (B200)
⚡ Up to 3.1× end-to-end RL throughput vs. Miles–Megatron
🔥 180B model fine-tuning on just 8 H100 GPUs.
Same hardware. Dramatically higher throughput. Comparable model quality.
We believe the next frontier isn't just building bigger GPU clusters.
It's unlocking more intelligence from every GPU, every watt, and every dollar spent on training.

Dapta has raised US$6M in seed funding to bring AI sales agents to more small businesses across the U.S. and Latin America, building on strong momentum with over 200K users, US$4M in annual revenue, and more than 4,000 new users joining weekly.
Its AI sales agent, Dapti, instantly responds to inbound leads, qualifies prospects, and schedules meetings, helping SMBs convert more customers without adding administrative overhead. According to Dapta's internal data, businesses using Dapti are seeing their contact rates double.
We're excited to continue backing Nicolas Rojas and the team as they make enterprise-level AI capabilities more accessible to small businesses.
