Was this an Inflection.ai style acquisition considering C.AI was profitable?

  do we know they were profitable? I doubt it, if they pulled this. I think they had high DAU/MAU but low paid users. this is basically Inflection 2.0.

    All public information about their finances only mentions their revenue, not their profits, which means they're almost certainly not profitable.

      I would be absolutely floored if any of these new crop of AI companies set profitable

  In contrast to something like Adept.ai, this appears just be the CEO + some key employees exiting, not a complete team poaching that leaves the company a shell of what it was. It doesn't necessairly imply Character.ai's business isn't doing well, but a CEO leaving is still indeed weird.

  They are likely unprofitable.
