I have a list of some I'm keeping tabs on, I'll share it here. I do it out of a combination of personal obsession plus because I want to source angel investments.

Note though that I'm very biased toward AI companies...

Most established, clear product-market fit:

- OpenAI

- Midjourney

- Character ai

- Runway ML

Ones that are interesting:

- Adept AI

- Modal, Banana.dev

- new.computer

- Magic.dev

- Modular (Mojo)

- tiny corp

- Galileo

- Hippo ML

- Tenstorrent

- contextual.ai

- Chroma

- e2b.dev

- Steamship

- Patterns.app

- GGML

Ones that I want to learn more about before deciding:

- Inflection AI

- GetLindy

- Embra

- Jam.dev

- Vocode.dev

That's about 50% of my list. Happy to clean up the rest and write a post if there's interest

I'd also be interested to see the list of companies that you've written off.

How about Untether?

They're developing a near-memory inference accelerator that looks pretty interesting.

Add Nnaisense (https://nnaisense.com/) maybe to the list.

What does Nnaisense do except being generic AI consultancy with Schmidhubers name on it?

I‘m not sure about them, they seem more like a research + consulting shop than working on products

What about Anthropic?
Re:Jim Keller on AI, RISC-V, Tenstorrent’s Move to Edge IP by rbzz on Tuesday June 13, 2023 @04:43PM (#36316911)
Anthropic feels super underrated. From my experience, Claude+ is on par with GPT-4, 100k context model is amazing, but because they don't have a product exposed to the public, they don't have to burn billions of $ on things like ChatGPT.

Also there's a chance they might avoid some cases of direct regulation and local bans since they are under media radar.

They also seem to have a pretty sweet deal with AWS going on.

Esperanto is doing (unless they have folded/pivoted since I last checked) RISC-V HW with an AI focus, heavily using the RISC-V vector extension.

Solid sample. Let's see the list!
