Agility Robotics plans to go public via SPAC in a $2.5B deal
Agility Robotics, maker of the Digit bipedal humanoid robot, is going public via a SPAC merger with Churchill Capital Corp XI in a deal valuing the company at approximately $2.5 billion. The transaction is expected to generate over $620 million in proceeds, including $200 million from institutional investors. Backed by Amazon, Nvidia, and SoftBank Vision Fund 2, Agility currently operates Digit robots across nine customer sites including Toyota and GXO. The company plans to use the capital to scale production of its next-generation Digit v5, fulfill over $300 million in multi-year orders, and expand its customer base of 30+ potential large-scale deployment prospects.

Chamath Palihapitiya: Meta fumbled its AI lead
Investor Chamath Palihapitiya appeared on The Axios Show and criticized Meta for squandering its early AI advantage, arguing the company had the data, distribution, and reach to dominate open-weight AI but failed to seize the moment — leaving that lane to Nvidia and others. He framed the AI market as three pillars: closed US labs (OpenAI, Anthropic), Chinese open-weight challengers (DeepSeek), and an open-source American lab that Meta could have owned. He also dismissed fears of an AI-driven jobs apocalypse, citing historical patterns of technology expanding human activity rather than eliminating it. In a rare personal admission, he acknowledged his SPAC incentives were 'grossly misaligned,' conceding that his earlier defenses were driven by insecurity. He described a redesigned SPAC vehicle with vesting tied to investor returns, and noted he now runs his own AI startup called 8090.
