Nscale left its largest customer Bytedance out of its IPO documentation

The company Nscale does not mention its largest customer, the company Bytedance, which accounted for 73 percent of its revenue in 2025, in its documentation for its IPO in the US. Bytedance accessed AI computing via its subsidiary Spring and Nvidia B200 chips in Norway.

Business impact

Investors considering participation in the IPO of the company Nscale are getting an incomplete picture of customer concentration, which increases the risk of mispricing the company; at the same time, the agreement with Spring points to a possible way of circumventing US export restrictions on Nvidia chips, which poses a legal and reputational risk for the entire supply chain around AI infrastructure.

Pew Research survey: a tenth of Americans seek emotional and existential support from AI chatbots

According to Pew Research Center, approximately 1 in 10 American adults use AI chatbots for emotional support; among people under 30, the figure is 1 in 5. A scholar of religion compares the emerging authority of AI with the dynamics of new religious movements.

Business impact

Companies operating AI chatbots for emotional or spiritual support (examples in the source: GitaGPT, HolyGPT) face the risk that users attribute authority to them comparable to that of a religious leader or therapist, without the product having corresponding professional oversight or accountability.

Orchestration of isolated LLM roles as an alternative to manually switching between chatbots

The author of the article on Root.cz describes a concept in which a software agent automatically divides a task among isolated roles (author, reviewer, checker), while context separation can, according to him, be achieved with a single model, not necessarily with multiple providers.

Business impact

According to the author, separating contexts between roles reduces the amount of data sent outside an organization’s own infrastructure and lowers costs, because the external model receives only an isolated task, not the entire project – relevant for companies considering AI agent architecture with costs and data protection in mind.

Drug development on AI infrastructure from Big Tech companies: the risk of vendor lock-in and unclear IP rights

Pharmaceutical companies are increasingly basing drug development on AI infrastructure provided by companies such as Nvidia, Google, Microsoft or Amazon. This accelerates research but carries the risk of dependence on a single supplier and uncertainty over who holds the rights to drugs developed with the help of AI.

Business impact

Companies entering into partnerships with suppliers of AI infrastructure (e.g. Nvidia, Google, Microsoft, Amazon) face the risk of vendor lock-in and uncertainty over ownership rights to results developed with the help of AI, as well as the protection of sensitive data.
