ER SharesのCOO兼チーフ・インベストメント・ストラテジスト、エバ・アドス氏は、OpenAIとAnthropicの新規株式公開が実現する可能性を前に、両社への資金投入に慎重になるよう投資家に警告し、革新的な技術が革新的なリターンを保証するわけではないと主張した。ジョシュ・リプトン氏との番組「マーケット・ドミネーション」に出演したアドス氏は、昨日AnthropicとOpenAIの株式10億ドル相当の売り注文が出たと述べ、これは大口保有者がバリュエーションへの懸念と中国からの競争を理由に持ち株を売り抜けている証拠だと指摘した。XOV ETFのためにSpaceXをIPO前に取得したER Sharesは、現在の水準やIPO直前のタイミングで両社に手を出すことは勧めず、大規模言語モデルを支えるインフラ、メモリー、コネクティビティ企業に投資する方が「敗者のゲーム」に勝つ道だと述べた。アドス氏はAnthropicの収益構造に言及し、売上1ドルにつき1.6ドルをコンピューティングインフラに費やしており、この不均衡は持続不可能だと指摘した。さらに、設備構築のための資金はいずれ枯渇すると付け加え、人類と安全保障上の理由から減速したいという両社の表明は、キャッシュ創出力と長期的な債務の間のギャップを埋める資金調達能力の欠如を覆い隠している可能性があると示唆した。

元GoogleとSpaceXのプロダクトマネージャーであるラマ・アフロ氏が創業したスタートアップ、Satlytは、衛星上でAIモデルを動かすソフトウェアを構築するため、800万ドルのシードラウンドを調達した。カリフォルニア州サニーベールとナイロビに拠点を置く同社は、自社で宇宙機を建造する計画はなく、軌道上コンピューティングのソフトウェア層として自らを位置づけている。アフロ氏はこのアプローチをVMwareやSnowflakeになぞらえる。Satlytはすでに2回の実証ミッションで自社ソフトウェアを飛行させており、その一つはMomentusが運用する宇宙機にGoogle DeepMindのGemma AIモデルを搭載した展開で、機上のソフトウェアエラーに関する伝送サイズを60%以上削減した。アフロ氏によれば、この節約効果は衛星1基あたり年間数十万ドルに達する可能性があるという。同社のソフトウェアは木曜日、SpaceXのロケットで、インドのスタートアップTakeMe2Spaceが建造した宇宙機に搭載されて打ち上げられる予定で、3社の顧客にサービスを提供する。宇宙におけるクラウドコンピューティングのプロトコルを試験するために費用を支払うNASA、画像処理ワークロードを試験する宇宙監視スタートアップのStellerian、そしてTakeMe2Space自身である。このシードラウンドを主導したのはヒューストン拠点のNon Sibi Venturesで、20年以上の経歴を持つ元NASA宇宙飛行士のパートナー、バーナード・ハリス氏が同社の確信を固める一助となった。パートナーのケント・ルーカス氏は、Satlytが完全な宇宙データセンターの不確実な経済性に依存していないことが投資の一因だったと述べた。アフロ氏の目標は、この10年の終わりまでに衛星の20%で稼働させることであり、同社は次に、2つの異なる衛星にまたがる共有コンピューティングシステムの実証を計画しており、来年に試みる見通しだ。

ピート・ヘグセス米国防長官は、未来の戦争に関する技術と戦い方を研究するプロジェクト「Project Meridian」の始動を発表し、イーロン・マスク氏、Anduril Industries創業者のパルマー・ラッキー氏、元米下院議長のニュート・ギングリッチ氏を研究の指導者として招き入れた。ヘグセス氏はバージニア州クアンティコ海兵隊基地での「State of the Force」演説でこの計画を明らかにし、米軍が今後数十年に直面する可能性のある戦争の形に対応するため、新たな兵器やシステムの探索、開発、実戦配備に注力すると述べた。マスク氏のSpaceXとラッキー氏のAndurilはいずれも米国防総省の主要請負業者である。このプロジェクトは、Uberの元幹部で現在はペンタゴンの上級技術責任者を務めるエミル・マイケル氏の監督下に置かれる。ただし、ヘグセス氏は予算、期間、プロジェクトの枠組みについての詳細はまだ明らかにしていない。Project Meridianに加え、ヘグセス氏は自律戦争司令部の設置も発表した。これはドローンや軍事ロボットシステムの管理と配備を監督するものである。また、米国の主要基地が電源網へのサイバー攻撃を受けても作戦能力を維持できるよう、自らエネルギーを生産できるようにしたいとの考えを示した。さらに、軍隊の宗教問題を扱う事務局の設置計画や、教育機関と連携して士官候補生の訓練プログラムを拡大する計画も発表した。参加する最初の教育機関には、Liberty University、Hillsdale College、Louisiana State University、Mississippi State University、Tuskegee Universityが含まれる。一方、米国防総省は40年ぶりに国内に新たな基地を建設する計画で、州政府が基地の立地をめぐって競争できるようにする。数千人の兵力を収容し、各基地は数十万エーカーの面積をカバーする可能性があると見込まれている。この計画は、ペンタゴンが欧州における米軍の削減を検討している中で打ち出された。ヘグセス氏は、軍は総兵力をさらに数万人増やし、重点を国土防衛と西半球に戻すと述べた。
