AlexSecret The upcoming IPO wave led by SpaceX, Anthropic, and OpenAI could mark a historic moment for public markets, with all three companies expected to debut at valuations rarely seen before, according to Liz Thomas, Chief Market Strategist at SoFi. SpaceX is reportedly targeting a valuation of roughly $1.75 trillion ahead of its expected June IPO, while Anthropic and OpenAI were most recently valued at $965 billion and $852 billion, respectively. Thomas noted that if the AI firms go public later this year, both could potentially cross the $1 trillion mark. The scale of those valuations far exceeds the largest technology IPOs of the past 15 years and reflects growing investor enthusiasm around artificial intelligence and the space economy. At the same time, Thomas cautioned that investors should expect elevated volatility in newly public AI stocks, especially during the first year of trading as markets adjust to earnings reports, lockup expirations, and broader shifts in risk appetite. She also raised questions about where the capital to fund these massive IPOs will come from, suggesting some investors may rotate out of existing AI holdings to participate in the offerings. Still, Thomas argued there appears to be ample liquidity in the market, with household equity exposure near record highs following several years of strong gains in stocks. While concerns remain around concentration and valuation levels, Thomas said the upcoming IPOs could become a major test of whether investor demand for AI-related assets remains as strong as current market momentum suggests.

5./15 WEST To enhance its search functionality and modernize its platform, Pinterest ( PINS ) has committed $4B for cloud services with Amazon Web Services (AWS) through 2031. This agreement is the largest infrastructure commitment in Pinterest’s history and is expected to accelerate the company’s AI ambitions. The investment aims to address declining user engagement on Pinterest amid complaints of “AI-generated slop,” irrelevant search results, excessive ads, and a dearth of useful tutorials/images. At the same time, curators often suffer from frequently hacked accounts and find automated bots initiate false suspensions for spam or policy violations. Importantly, the greater push into AI also seeks to stifle the exodus of advertising dollars from large retailers to Meta ( META ) and Google ( GOOG ), whose more advanced AI capabilities and higher user engagement have given them a competitive advantage over Pinterest ( PINS ). Investors are applauding Pinterest's ( PINS ) initiative by driving the stock more than 5% higher on Thursday. More on Pinterest Pinterest: Holy Speedy Buybacks Batman!

Databricks、Perplexity AI 联合创始人安迪・康温斯基 身为亿万富豪、同时手握 Databricks 与 Perplexity AI 两家企业的联合创始人安迪・康温斯基，正全力试图扭转多年来 AI 学术人才持续流向头部科技巨头的行业趋势。 当下前沿 AI 大厂竞相研发顶尖大模型与智能产品，纷纷缩减对外公开的科研成果，康温斯基由此呼吁学术界科研人员更多发布 开源可查阅的研究论文 。 谷歌 历来以公开学术论文著称，但斯坦福大学 2026 年一份调研报告显示：OpenAI、Anthropic 以及谷歌如今不再披露大模型训练所用代码、算力投入、训练数据集规模等关键信息，而这些数据是外界复现其技术成果的核心依据。 康温斯基在圣何塞举办的美国计算机学会（ACM）AI 行业会议上表示：“开放科研必须存续，背后关乎基础科学发展、社会公共利益乃至民主安全等多重关键理由。” 他举例，谷歌 2017 年一篇经典论文奠定了当下主流大模型与对话 AI 的技术根基，正是当年开放式学术发布才推动全行业技术普及。 他谈到，如今一批业界顶尖学术前辈日渐不再对外发表论文，也不留校培育后辈科研力量；伴随 AI 技术复杂度不断提升、深度绑定各国国家安全，未来全球 AI 人才或将出现断层紧缺。 2025 年 6 月，康温斯基出资 1 亿美元创立 劳德研究院（Laude Institute） ，该机构定位类似 AI 科研圈的创业孵化器 Y Combinator，专门扶持怀揣突破性 AI 研究构想的高校科研人员。研究院目前以单项最高 1000 万美元的科研补助金，落地扶持约 70 个研发项目： 其中斯坦福学者研发的 Terminal-Bench 全套 AI 评测工具，现已成为全球 AI 代码产品的通用行业基准；另一项斯坦福 Marin 项目，主攻低成本开源基座模型预训练方案，依托更少 AI 算力芯片与训练轮次，就能实现对标前沿闭源大模型的性能。 康温斯基每月约谈北美 TOP20 高校约十余名博士研究生，重点覆盖斯坦福、伯克利、麻省理工、卡内基梅隆。他向学生游说： 留在高校深耕学术，哪怕数年年薪不足 10 万美元，也别入职科技巨头领取百万至三百万美元年薪包 ；只要坚持开源发表成果，劳德研究院全额资助科研经费、助力技术成果全球共享。他笃定，坚持走学术路线的研究者，未来照样能收到大厂数千万美元的高...

John Bolton To Plead Guilty In Documents Case, Pay $2M Fine: Report John Bolton , former national security adviser to President Donald Trump, has reached a plea deal with federal prosecutors and is expected to plead guilty to one count of illegal retention of sensitive national security documents , according to CNN , citing three sources familiar with the matter. Under the agreement, Bolton will pay a fine of more than $2 million . A single count of illegal retention carries a possible sentence of up to 60 months in prison. A court hearing is currently scheduled for June 26 . Bolton was originally charged in Maryland with eight counts of transmission of national defense information and ten counts of retention of national defense information. The charges centered on diary-like entries from his time in the Trump White House that were allegedly kept at his residence. Prosecutors accused him of sharing more than 1,000 pages of information through his personal email with two unauthorized individuals - reportedly his wife and daughter - though these transmission allegations are not part of the plea deal. Related : Eyebrow-Raising Details Emerge From FBI Raid On John Bolton's Home According to the indictment, Bolton used personal email and messaging accounts to transmit Top Secret intelligence about foreign adversaries, future attacks, and U.S. foreign-policy relations. He also kept classified files at his home, including sensitive intelligence about foreign leaders and U.S. intelligence sources. The FBI Baltimore Field Office led the investigation, with oversight from the Justice Department's National Security Division. The indictment outlines two core allegations: Eight counts of transmission of NDI under the Espionage Act (18 U.S.C. §793(d)), and Ten counts of unlawful retention of NDI under §793(e). The investigation intensified after Bolton’s email was breached by suspected Iranian hackers, during which investigators discovered the classified “diary-like entries.” Bol...
