Ricursive Intelligence secured 300 million dollars in Series A funding at a 4 billion dollar valuation to automate AI chip design. Led by Lightspeed with NVIDIA participation, the startup scales reinforcement learning techniques from the creators of Google AlphaChip. This represents a systemic shift toward self-improving silicon where AI autonomously optimizes its own hardware. By slashing floorplanning time from months to hours, this loop will accelerate compute scaling for AGI. π
