Its lead by ASML by the looks of it, but a fat chunk of that could be nvidia. We don't know.
how quickly you went from mainly funded by nvidia to we don’t know
But for all we know, a big fat chunk of it is Nvidia's money. It could be 49% of it for all we know, because I can't find full details of their series C round. On top of that ASML is also profiting from the AI bubble.
They're either funding it (which they are for sure, since it says so) or they're 1 degree of kevin bacon from funding it.
Missing the wood for the trees. Also, I'm not the same person that you replied to.
what are you an ai:
mistral is mainly funded by nvidia
are you sure about that?
you were right to question me, we don’t actually know, insert ramble about nonsense
i don’t know why you willingly joined in on a losing argument
They're part of the same circular financing con:

They're being nebulous about it.

you’re confused why mistral, the only major european ai company, is purchasing nvidia gpus?
