Read previewTennr, an A16z-backed startup using AI to replace faxes in healthcare, is raising a Series B round just seven months after its Series A. The startup is grabbing fresh cash from Lightspeed Venture Partners, according to two people with knowledge of the efforts. Those two people said Lightspeed preempted the fundraising efforts, approaching Tennr before the startup set out to raise more money. AI startups like Perplexity and Groq are reportedly tacking on more funding right now after closing big deals earlier this year. Some investors are taking the same approach with healthcare AI startups.

AdvertisementIt's unclear how successful TikTok Music was at building a user base in the five countries where it launched. On Apple's app store, TikTok Music is the 28th most popular music-streaming app in Indonesia and the 71st most popular in Brazil. Why not send those TikTok music fans to a streaming app it owns? Going forward, the company will likely focus on its "Add To Music App" feature, which lets TikTok users add songs or pre-save tracks they hear on TikTok to other streaming services like Spotify, Amazon Music, and Apple Music.

That's liquid cooling, a cooling technology used in data centers which helps to improve power and cost efficiency. "As air cooling is approaching the limit of its cooling capacity, the importance of liquid cooling is getting increasingly more pronounced … liquid cooling [is] becoming a must-have for GB200," said the bank. Nomura estimates the liquid cooling penetration rate in Nvidia's AI servers is set to rise from 8% in 2024 to 43% in 2025, and 47% in 2026. Liquid cooling systems are the solution to "power shortage pressures" in data centers, Morgan Stanley said in a previous report . Against that backdrop, Jefferies is bullish on four Asian stocks it says will be "key beneficiaries" of the liquid cooling trend.

Read previewConsumers could end up paying the (personalized) price as AI becomes more popular, FTC Chair Lina Khan recently warned. Khan said that dynamic pricing, while a separate pricing strategy, may have helped price targeting become more prevalent as people become increasingly used to encountering it. Dynamic pricing itself has already proven controversial in some areas. Wendy's received major heat from customers after announcing plans to introduce dynamic pricing and AI-enabled menu changes as early as 2025. Later, the fast-food chain clarified that its dynamic pricing would not raise prices but rather only provide discounts.
