And on the funding front, chip startup Cerebras has raised five point five billion dollars, effectively kicking off what analysts are calling two thousand twenty six's IPO season. A year ago the company's path to public markets looked genuinely uncertain. That this raise happened at all — and at this scale — says something real about where investor appetite for AI infrastructure currently sits.
