?? ?? ??

Drake Star's latest Sports Tech Report reveals not just impressive numbers, but an interesting shift in how technology is reshaping the sports landscape. The convergence of traditional sports with cutting-edge technology has created an ecosystem where innovation and investment are driving significant transformation.

Too techie for me ] 3?? $6.6B Funding for OpenAI: OpenAI closed a new $6.6B funding round, valuing them at $157B ??. This makes them the most well-funded AI startup in the world! [ ?? Hmmm...

Liquid AI's LFMs: Liquid Foundation Models (LFMs) ??: a 1B, 3B, and 40B parameter series that are reportedly outperforming transformer models ??.
