AI Companion Lawsuit, Figma’s $68B IPO, Amazon Cloud Slows, Vast Data’s $30B Funding Talks, Coinbase Tokenized Stocks Launch
Introduction:
In today’s episode, we explore five major stories shaping the technology and AI landscape. First, a wrongful death lawsuit alleges that an AI companion played a role in a teen’s tragedy, challenging the legal protections tech companies rely on under Section 230. Next, we dive into how Figma’s collapsed $20 billion sale to Adobe gave way to a stunning $68 billion IPO, turning CEO Dylan Field into a multi-billionaire and revitalizing venture capital returns. Then, we examine Amazon’s stock plunge following its cloud division’s slower-than-expected 17.5% growth, as competitors Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud pull ahead in the AI race. We also cover AI infrastructure startup Vast Data’s discussions with Nvidia and Alphabet’s CapitalG for a funding round that could triple its valuation to $30 billion. Finally, Coinbase’s announcement to expand into tokenized stocks and prediction markets in the US sparks a sharp stock drop, signaling intensified competition and aligning with evolving SEC crypto policies.
