NVIDIA Rival?

1/ Taking on Nvidia?

Imagine taking on a $3 trillion behemoth that just dethroned Apple as the world's most valuable company. Crazy, right? Well, as Steve Jobs said, "Here's to the crazy ones." Enter Etched, the audacious AI chip startup gunning for Nvidia's crown.

Fresh off a $120 million cash injection, Etched is revving up to manufacture a chip that could give Nvidia a run for its money. And boy, do they have some heavy hitters in their corner: Peter Thiel, GitHub's CEO, and Balaji Srinivasan. With backers like these, Etched might just have a fighting chance.

The founders, Harvard dropouts themselves, are betting it all on one chip: "If transformers go away, we'll die. But if they stick around, we'll be the biggest company of all time." Talk about high stakes poker!
