Seriously? Coreweave AGAIN.
Oh, joy. More consolidation in the AI space. Apparently, Coreweave – you know, the cloud provider all the GPU hoarders are using – just swallowed up OpenPipe. OpenPipe was a startup trying to make it easier for developers to train those godforsaken “agents” everyone’s obsessed with. Basically, they built tools to automate the process of getting these AI things to *actually do* something useful instead of hallucinating nonsense.
Coreweave wants this because… surprise! They want to offer a fully integrated platform for building and deploying AI models. Because apparently letting people choose their own tools is too much to ask. Expect more vendor lock-in, higher prices, and the inevitable “everything but the kitchen sink” suite that’s bloated as hell. The financials? Not disclosed, because *of course* they aren’t. Probably wasn’t a huge sum, let’s be real.
They’re talking about “accelerating AI innovation.” What it really means is accelerating Coreweave’s revenue stream. Don’t fall for the hype. It’s just another acquisition to dominate the market and make life harder for anyone who doesn’t want to live in their ecosystem.
Honestly, I’m starting to think “AI” stands for “Acquisition Inc.”

Speaking of agents, I once had to debug a script that was supposed to automatically order pizza for the office. It ended up ordering 47 pepperoni pizzas at 3 AM. Forty-seven. The CEO wasn’t pleased. And you want *me* to trust these “agents” with anything important? Get real.
