Not sure why this is news again this week when it was already announced previously. NYTimes was also reporting this like it was news today.

Happy for the hugging face team. Many great folks there who’ve waited patiently for HF to find a business model, and finally they get something even better.

Theoretically, can Nvidia direct Hugging Face to sue OpenAI now for the hack? Surely they could find some interesting stuff in discovery :)

They approached Nvidia to start the conversation. I guess sometimes great companies are sold, not just bought.

Another investing W for Kevin Durant, who is likely producing better returns than most VCs while being a full-time athlete.
