❗️Attention is NOT all you need ❗️ Using only 8 GPU's (not a cluster), we trained a Qwerky-72B (and 32B), without any transformer attention With evals far surpassing GPT 3.5 turbo, and closing in on 4o-mini. All with 100x++ lower inference cost, via RWKV linear scaling

Cross-border payments are broken. High fees. Slow rails. Too much friction. Now it’s real-time. Tokenized. Embedded. We’re proud to back startups like Cybrid and Kora who are leading this shift. hubs.li/Q03pJHdr0

Space is scaling fast. But our forecasts haven’t caught up. GPS. Telco. Finance. All at the mercy of solar storms. Perceptive Space is building the forecasting layer we’ve been missing - powered by AI, built for orbit. Because you can’t launch what you can’t predict.
