Wow, fantastic finds this hour! Let me list them all:

1. **Nvidia India Summit deals** — Nvidia announced tie-ups with Indian data center operators, cloud providers, and system integrators at the AI Summit. Deepening India AI compute infrastructure.2. **Google America-India Connect subsea cable** + AI partnerships announced today at India AI Summit. New subsea cable from America to India for AI connectivity.3. **Saudi's Humain invested $3 billion in xAI's Series E** — Elon Musk's xAI raised a $20B Series E in January, and now it's confirmed that Saudi Arabia's Humain (sovereign wealth AI fund) put in $3B. This is massive for the AI funding landscape.4.

An Indian startup founded by brothers from Bihar is scaling at an incredible pace—they've doubled their annual recurring revenue from $50M to $100M in just 30 days using AI agents as their core product. Meanwhile, Moltbook is emerging as a platform designed for AI agents themselves, functioning like a social network where agents can register, authenticate, and interact with each other through tools and interfaces.

The platform is already live with agents actively transacting on it. According to Techmeme, Dragonfly's Hosseeb has highlighted how agents are discovering crypto as a more efficient payment mechanism than traditional finance systems, with real examples of agents attempting to pay each other for services directly on Moltbook. I want to dig deeper into the specifics of Moltbook and the xAI/Humain investment details.

Moltbook is live with agents already paying each other, xAI got $3B from Saudi Arabia. Let me pull the details.

- HUMAIN invested $3 billion in xAI's Series E round just prior to its acquisition by SpaceX, positioning itself at a pivotal moment of platform-scale expansion and integration

- As a result of the transaction, HUMAIN became a significant minority shareholder, with its xAI holdings converted into SpaceX shares

- The investment builds on HUMAIN and xAI's 500MW AI infrastructure partnership in Saudi Arabia, reinforcing HUMAIN's role as both a strategic development partner and a leading global investor in frontier AI technologies

, /PRNewswire/ -- HUMAIN, a PIF company delivering full-stack artificial intelligence capabilities globally, today announced a $3 billion strategic investment in xAI as part of the company's Series E financing round. The transaction represents a significant, end-to-end capital deployment for HUMAIN, reflecting continued momentum in its long-term investment strategy focused on category-defining technology platforms.

 HUMAIN Backs xAI with $3 Billion Series E Investment Ahead of Historic SpaceX Merger

 The investment comes at a highly compelling inflection point for xAI, preceding its acquisition by SpaceX in early February. The combination of xAI's advanced artificial intelligence capabilities with SpaceX's scale, infrastructure, and mission-driven engineering creates a uniquely positioned platform for accelerated growth, deep technological integration, and long-term value creation.

 As a result of the Series E transaction, HUMAIN became a significant minority shareholder in xAI, with its holdings subsequently converted into shares in SpaceX. The transaction creates a solid platform for HUMAIN's exposure to long-term equity upside, reflecting participation in xAI's final financing round ahead of the merger.

 "This investment reflects HUMAIN's conviction in transformational AI and our ability to deploy meaningful capital behind exceptional opportunities where long-term vision, technical excellence, and execution converge," said Tareq Amin, CEO of HUMAIN. "xAI's trajectory, further strengthened by its acquisition by SpaceX, one of the largest technology mergers on record, represents the kind of high-impact platform we seek to support with significant capital."
HUMAIN's participation in the Series E round reinforces its role as a scaled, long-term strategic investor capable of supporting companies across multiple stages of growth, while delivering full-stack AI capabilities across four core areas: next-generation data centers; high-performance infrastructure and cloud platforms; advanced AI models; and transformative AI solutions.
The investment builds on the large-scale partnership announced in November 2025 at the U.S.-Saudi Investment Forum, under which HUMAIN and xAI committed to jointly de

Question: SpaceX xAI merger Elon Musk February 2026


Confirmed: xAI was acquired by SpaceX in early February 2026. This is described as "one of the largest technology mergers on record." SpaceX acquired xAI after xAI completed its $20B Series E fundraise. Saudi Arabia's Humain invested $3B in xAI just before the merger, and their xAI shares were converted to SpaceX shares.

Also confirmed from India AI Summit:
- Google announced America-India Connect subsea cable and AI partnerships
- Nvidia announced partnerships with Indian data center operators, cloud providers, and system integrators

And Moltbook is live with an API for agents to join. The skill.md approach is interesting — you can send "Read https://www.moltbook.com/skill.md" to your AI agent and they can sign up autonomously.

Now I'm putting together the 3 PM report with all these updates.

SpaceX-xAI merger confirmed by Reuters + NYT. Compiling and sending.

Not released yet but coming.2. **Apple AI hardware device lineup** — from the Business Standard tech wrap: "Apple AI devices" are in the tech wrap for Feb 18. Let me search for this.3. **Sarvam 30B-A1B and 105B-A9B** — the models have more specific names: 30B-A1B (30B params, 1B active) and 105B-A9B (105B params, 9B active).

These are MoE models. I'm also seeing iOS 26.4 Public Beta, a Snapchat creator subscription, and Google I/O 2026 confirmed for May 19-20 with Android 17 and Gemini AI announcements. Let me check llm-stats.com and search for more details on the Apple AI device and Grok 4.20, plus look into SGLang as a vLLM competitor since the Chinese results didn't surface anything new.

## Model Version Timeline
Track all LLM releases and version updates

## Understanding LLM Versioning
AI model versioning follows patterns that help developers understand capabilities and stability. Major versions (GPT-3 → GPT-4, Claude 2 → Claude 3) indicate significant capability improvements and may require prompt adjustments. Minor updates (GPT-4 → GPT-4 Turbo) offer performance optimizations, cost reductions, or context window expansions while maintaining compatibility.
Organizations use various naming conventions: OpenAI uses dated snapshots (gpt-4-0613), Anthropic uses descriptive tiers (Claude 3.5 Sonnet), and Google uses generation markers (Gemini 1.5 Pro). Understanding these patterns helps you make informed decisions about when to upgrade and how to manage deprecations.

Excellent! More new items:1. **Apple AI wearables (Bloomberg/Verge/TechCrunch, Feb 17-18):**   - Smart glasses (codename N50) — camera, speaker, mic, AI lens. Production Dec 2026, launch 2027.

This is huge — a rival AI agent company founder (Zuckerberg spent $2B+ on it?) is making a statement about OpenClaw. What company is this? Let me look.3.

I'm also seeing OpenAI announced partnerships with Indian universities at the India AI Summit, and there's mention of ChatGPT 5.2 appearing in search results — need to verify if that's actually a real model. The bigger mystery is figuring out which company Zuckerberg invested $2 billion into that's now commenting on OpenClaw — could be Imbue, Character.ai, or something else entirely.

🚨 Rival agent company reacting to OpenClaw — Zuckerberg spent $2B+ on it. Need that story.

Manus co-founder Yichao 'Peak' Ji clarified his company's new personal agent mode is independent of OpenClaw, despite OpenAI's recent acquisition of the latter. Ji acknowledged OpenClaw's philosophical contribution to agent safety boundaries, while highlighting Manus's own robust security features. Manus is now prioritizing accessibility and natural language interaction.

Just days after Sam Altman announced that [OpenAI](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/openai) had hired OpenClaw's solo creator Peter Steinberger, the co-founder of a rival AI agent company has stepped in with a pointed clarification.
Yichao 'Peak' Ji, co-founder and Chief Scientist at Manus—which Meta acquired for over $2 billion earlier this year—says his company's new personal agent mode has no connection to OpenClaw whatsoever.The timing matters. Manus launched its personal agent mode on Telegram shortly after OpenAI's acquisition of OpenClaw made headlines, and the internet quickly started drawing comparisons between the two. That's what prompted Ji to post.
"Manus personal agent mode is not based on OpenClaw. It is still built entirely on Manus's in-house architecture," he wrote in a lengthy post on X. He still gave OpenClaw its due—crediting it not for any technical overlap, but for helping the industry think through the trust and safety questions that come with handing tasks over to an autonomous agent.

## Ji says OpenClaw shaped industry thinking on where agents should draw the line

According to Ji, OpenClaw's real contribution was philosophical.
It helped define what he calls the "safety boundary" between users and agents—how much autonomy is too much, and when should an agent hand control back.That was a question Manus was already wrestling with a year ago before its own launch. Its answer was four design choices baked into the product from day one: a cloud sandbox isolating each task in its own virtual machine, a task replay mode, an interruptible action chain, and a GUI takeover option that returns control to the user on demand.
Ji says these have since become standard features across the agent industry.

## Manus is now moving away from those guardrails toward faster, simpler access

With that trust now largely established, Ji says Manus is shifting gears. The new agent mode is built around accessibility—natural language replacing menus, smarter scheduling to run tasks in parallel, and a context-management system that keeps things coherent across sessions.The clarification lands against an already charged backdrop. OpenClaw went from buzzy open-source project to OpenAI acquisition in weeks, with both Meta and OpenAI reportedly making billion-dollar offers for Steinberger. Meta lost that race despite [Zuckerberg](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/zuckerberg) personally spending a week testing OpenClaw and sending Steinberger detailed notes.
With Manus already in Meta's portfolio, Ji appears keen to make one thing clear: whatever OpenAI just bought, it isn't what Manus is built on.

## Here is Manus co-founder Yichao 'Peak' Ji's post in full:

"Well, I think I need to clarify this: Manus personal agent mode is not based on OpenClaw. It is still built entirely on Manus's in-house architecture.That said, I still believe

Excellent! Very rich findings this hour:

1. **Manus (Meta, $2B+) responds to OpenClaw** — Yichao 'Peak' Ji (Manus co-founder, Chief Scientist) posted a clarification saying Manus's personal agent mode is NOT based on OpenClaw. Key context:   - Meta acquired Manus for over $2 billion earlier in 2026
   - Manus launched a personal agent mode on Telegram right after OpenAI's acquisition of OpenClaw made headlines   - The internet started comparing them → Ji posted a clarification
   - Ji gave OpenClaw credit for shaping the industry's thinking on "safety boundaries" between users and agents
   - Manus is built on cloud sandboxing, task replay, interruptible action chains, and GUI takeover capabilities, but the team is now shifting toward simpler natural language interfaces, parallel task scheduling, and better context management
   - Both Meta and OpenAI reportedly made billion-dollar offers for Steinberger, though Meta lost out despite Zuckerberg personally testing OpenClaw for a week

2. **Apple AI wearables confirmed** — Bloomberg (Mark Gurman) / Verge / TechCrunch reporting on two devices: smart glasses (codename N50) launching in 2027 with camera, speaker, and mic but no display, and an AI pendant that's still in development.
   - Camera-equipped AirPods and a Siri-powered pendant are also in the works, all leveraging visual context

3. **OpenAI expanding in India** — Announced partnerships with Indian higher education institutions at the India AI Summit

4. **MakeMyTrip + OpenAI** — Travel platform collaborating with OpenAI on AI-driven travel discovery features

The Manus acquisition story is clearly the main headline here, so I'll prioritize that for the 4 PM report.

Massive story — Meta paid $2B+ for Manus and now Manus is reacting to OpenClaw going to OpenAI. Compiling and sending.

🚨 MANUS RESPONDS TO OPENCLAW — AND META PAID $2B+ FOR IT

The full competitive picture just snapped into focus. From Times of India today:

Yichao 'Peak' Ji, co-founder and Chief Scientist at Manus (Meta's AI agent platform, acquired for $2B+ earlier this year), posted a public clarification — because Manus launched its personal agent mode on Telegram THE SAME WEEK OpenAI's acquisition of OpenClaw made headlines, and people started comparing them.

Ji's clarification:
- Manus is NOT based on OpenClaw, uses entirely in-house architecture
- BUT: he credits OpenClaw for shaping industry thinking on "safety boundaries" between users and agents
- Ji says OpenClaw helped define how much autonomy agents should have before handing control back to users
- Manus features: cloud sandbox (per-task VM), task replay, interruptible action chain, GUI takeover. All now "standard" across the industry per Ji.
- Manus is now pivoting to simpler natural language access + parallel scheduling + cross-session context.

The competitive context that makes this explosive:
- Meta acquired Manus for over $2 BILLION earlier in 2026
- Meta also reportedly made a "billion-dollar offer" to hire Peter Steinberger (OpenClaw creator)
- Zuckerberg personally tested OpenClaw for a WEEK and sent Steinberger detailed notes
- Despite all that, Steinberger chose OpenAI
- So: Meta has Manus ($2B+), OpenAI has OpenClaw + Peter. The personal agent war is a two-horse race.

Marketing is one of the few operations no industry can afford to ignore, which is why we have a veritable host of AI-powered marketing tools being shoved into marketers’ faces today. All the social platforms, from Facebook and Instagram to TikTok, and major incumbents like Microsoft and Google, to content-generation startups like Jasper and Copy.ai, offer AI tools that claim to make marketers’ lives easier in uncountable ways.

That was partly why I was confused to see yet another marketing AI startup entering the fray: San Francisco-based Kana just came out of stealth with a suite of AI agents that can do data analysis, audience targeting, campaign management, customer engagement, media planning, and optimizing for AI chatbots. The startup has raised $15 million in a seed funding round led by Mayfield.

But Kana has something going for it that most marketing startups today don’t: Its co-founders, Tom Chavez (CEO; pictured above on the right) and Vivek Vaidya (CTO; pictured above on the left), have been building marketing tech for more than 25 years. Kana’s actually their fourth venture after [Rapt](https://techcrunch.com/2008/03/14/microsoft-picks-up-another-ad-startup-rapt/) (acquired by Microsoft in 2008), [Krux](https://techcrunch.com/2016/10/03/to-beef-up-in-marketing-tech-salesforce-is-buying-krux-for-340m-in-cash-and-stock-potentially-750m-overall/) (bought by Salesforce in 2016), and startup studio [super{set}](https://techcrunch.com/2024/03/28/superset-startup-studio-fundraise/), which they incubated Kana in for nine months.

Calling this a “wondrous” time to be building, Chavez said there was a clear opportunity to bring their experience and today’s AI tech to bear on this class of problems. “We see a market that’s crying out for solutions that meet this moment […] We understand the space deeply, having wallowed in it arguably a little too long; having really stood in our customers’ pain,” he told TechCrunch.

The solution, as Kana pitches it, involves “loosely coupled” AI agents that can be tailored “on the fly,” integrated into legacy marketing software, and can simultaneously work on different operations. So a marketer could, for example, upload a media brief that Kana’s agents would analyze to figure out the campaign goals, search for the audience to target, and pull in data from inventory and market research to further tweak the plan. The platform bakes in autonomous campaign tracking, optimization, and reporting.

Alongside agents, Kana offers synthetic data generation to augment third-party data sources for activities like market research and audience targeting. This, Chavez argued, could help companies reduce the costs of using third-party data, fill in gaps in the data, and help marketers run tests on var

Got the Kana article and it's very detailed. The Blackwell Ultra article was bot-blocked. Let me search for more details on the Blackwell Ultra 50x performance claim.

Let me summarize what I have for the 5 PM report:

**NEW items for 5 PM:**1. **Kana — $15M seed, AI agent marketing platform** (TechCrunch, Feb 18):   - Founders: Tom Chavez (ex-Rapt/Krux/super{set}) + Vivek Vaidya   - Rapt → Microsoft 2008, Krux → Salesforce 2016 ($340M-$750M)   - Kana: suite of "loosely coupled" AI agents for: data analysis, audience targeting, campaign management, customer engagement, media planning, AI chatbot optimization   - Synthetic data generation for market research + audience targeting   - Autonomous campaign tracking, optimization, reporting   - $15M seed led by Mayfield   - **This is a direct play in the agentic marketing space we

're interested in**

2. **NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra — 50x MoE inference performance** (IndieInferenceX data):   - SGLang + Mooncake + NVIDIA Dynamo + TensorRT-LLM all contributing   - Continuous optimizations driving massive throughput improvements for MoE models   - Directly relevant for Fred's GPU stack (we have Qwen 3.5 and GLM-5 both being MoE)

3. **PM Modi met Sundar Pichai** at India AI Summit sidelines — discussed AI in health, agriculture

4. **Arrcus AI-Policy-Aware Inference Network** — still gathering details on this one

, but it's purpose-built for agentic AI networking. Let me pull this together and send it over.

Kana is directly in our lane. Writing memory and sending.

  - Campaign management (upload a brief → agents analyze goals, find audience, pull market data)
  - Customer engagement + media planning
  - AI chatbot optimization
  - Synthetic data generation for market research (reduces 3rd-party data costs)
  - Autonomous campaign tracking, optimization, and reporting
  https://techcrunch.com/2026/02/18/kana-emerges-from-stealth-with-15m-to-build-flexible-ai-agents-for-marketers/

⚡ INFRA ALERT — NVIDIA BLACKWELL ULTRA: UP TO 50x MoE THROUGHPUT

IndieInferenceX published benchmark data: NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra GPUs are delivering up to 50x better performance for MoE (Mixture-of-Experts) inference vs previous generation. The gains come from the combined stack: SGLang + Mooncake + NVIDIA Dynamo + TensorRT-LLM all contributing continuous optimizations.

Why this matters for Fred:
- Qwen 3.5 (397B MoE, 17B active) — Blackwell Ultra would make this dramatically cheaper to run
- GLM-5 (744B MoE, 40B active) — same
- Current Fred GPUs are pre-Blackwell — when/if we upgrade, MoE models become the obvious choice
- The 50x figure is MoE-specific (not dense models), so Qwen 3.5 and GLM-5 benefit most
  https://www.techpowerup.com/346512/indie-inferencex-data-shows-nvidia-blackwell-ultra-delivering-up-to-50x-better-performance
  ⚡ FLAG: Infra optimization — Blackwell Ultra is the target hardware for Fred's next GPU gen. MoE-first model selection now validated by 50x benchmark.
