I’m really confused now. Also, is there really that much of a transformative difference between Windsurf and say OpenAI/Claude etc to warrant this crazy valuations?
- xnx 1y ago> crazy valuations I haven't seen anything to indicate what was paid for what's left of Windsurf.
- isodev 1y agoI was also referring to the $2.5B Google paid. I can’t imagine what could possibly be the value they’re hoping to get
- xnx 1y agoI'd love to learn more about that arrangement. Maybe Google's terms indicated that the "licensing fees" portion of "$2.4 billion in licensing fees and for compensation" are void if Windsurf gets acquired.
- brulard 1y agoThey got the top talent from there with the technology and they can continue on that or be used for other AI projects, right?
- guluarte 1y agoI'm also confused why Devin is worth billions
- yoyohello13 1y agoFor real. According to the marketing material. Couldn’t Devon just whip up a windsurf competitor in minutes?
- iamleppert 1y agoThey are hiring software engineers! Just look at the careers page! hahahaha
- codingwagie 1y agothe founder went to harvard, is basically the answer
- anticensor 1y agoDevin's whole business model is predicated upon replacing programmers with minimum wage AI agents.
- guluarte 1y agoThat'll be cool only if Devin actually worked.
- citizenpaul 1y agoThat the generally unspoken business model for all ai products. How can we get rid of these annoying humans. Reminds me of of some quip where a doctor says to a resident. Yeah this job would be so cool if it wasn't for all these sick people.
