Definitely one of the best teams I’ve met and worked with in the local tech scene. Run:ai ✨ But a few more reasons why this acquisition is awesome. 1. Nvidia appreciates us & keeps on doubling-down on the Israeli startup ecosystem. After the huge success with Mellanox the Giant is here to stay. That’s great. Again - I’d say that a big part of it belongs to Eyal Waldman. 2. Israel will get stronger, or at least keep on track within the race to AI. 3. Timing: especially now. When Israel is threatened and facing different attacks, and some big challenges. While many of us are not at our best (to say the least) and fight for our future - Nvidia knows what great innovation we have here, how great the teams are - and closing such a deal. 4. Just like many other great things we’ve seen recently, also this innovation starts with science. Education is important! 5. A small reason to smile and feel proud of our tech industry. Happy news. Congratulations Omri Geller Ronen Dar Yael Dor Rona Segev … 🤍 #bringthembacknow

This post is dedicated to my non-Israeli friends. But everyone’s welcome to read it :)   I’m sitting down to write this post about 10 minutes before the Israeli Memorial Day transitions to our Independence Day. Every year this is a nearly unbearable transition, from deep sadness to pride and joy. We are taught, from a very young age (as early as 6 years old, as I learned this year through my son), that these two dates were set intentionally, so that us Israelis will always remember that our independence came, and keeps coming, at great cost. This year, I feel it’s even worse than unbearable. It’s simply impossible. I find myself uncapable of celebrating Independence Day. As a nation and a country, we’re still at war. As an individual (and far from being the only one feeling like this), I’m still mourning. I truly believe we should still find ways to be happy and participate in or even initiate whatever activities that serve that purpose. But highlighting the achievement of becoming an independent country, of forming a safe country for Jewish people.. Right now it just doesn’t feel like the right time to do that.     And here’s why I’m writing to you, non-Israelis. I want to tell you more about what I’m mourning. I hope this will help those of you who see Israel at a mostly negative light, better understand the complexity of our reality.   Personally, I fully acknowledge Israel shares the responsibility over the truly shitty life of the people of Gaza. Along with that, I’m mourning what Israelis must live through right now: The tragic loss of so many loved ones, so many of them in terrible ways that I don’t think I’ll ever dare expose myself to. The need to leave their homes, and uproot their families, their whole lives. The fear that we’ll never feel safe again, not in Israel, and not anywhere else. The feeling I often struggle with, that I might never fully recover from my personal Oct 7 experience. That I will never be my best self again because of it – not the best mother I want to be, not the best partner, not the best friend, not the best employee.   So back to the complexity – you see, almost all Israelis are like me. People who just want to feel safe, just want to provide their kids with everything they need, just want to be able to celebrate without thinking about all that is wrong in the world.   I’m proud to be Israeli, although I’ve never felt more challenged to say it out loud.

We recently took part in CTech by Calcalist’s 2024 VC Survey where we shared our thoughts on the current status of Israel’s high-tech sector. In it, we give our thoughts on how the Startup Nation has been affected by the events of the last year, offer practical tips for founders looking to raise, and share why despite the challenges we are more confident than ever to partner with the new wave of high-potential growth companies.💪 Bottom line: We have absolute faith in the resilience of Israeli entrepreneurs, a trait that has defined our nation in the face of challenges for decades. A peaceful Passover to all of our Jewish founders, friends, and family! ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dDhgH74m

"AR computing!" Say goodbye to traditional laptops. An Israeli entrepreneur has innovated a technology that bids farewell to our traditional laptops. Tamir Berliner- founder of Sightful and the innovator behind the Spacetop G1! What is the Spacetop G1? Spatial computer that seamlessly integrates the functionality of a laptop with the capabilities Of Augmented Reality (AR). A 100-inch virtual workspace replaces the need for a physical screen. Spacetop G1 adapts to various environments, whether at home, in the office, or on the go. This represents a step forward in integrating AR technologies with daily tasks. Spatial with AR transforms how we interact with digital content, personally and professionally. The real test will be in its execution. The usability of the AR interface, the battery life, the comfort of AR glasses, etc., are crucial. I believe Sightful has managed to address these practical concerns effectively. And I am awaiting the official release in india. Congrats to Tamir Berliner and the team for their bold move and fantastic innovation. The Spacetop G1 is an evolution in how we think about personal computing.

An extraordinary tale of how I made LinkedIn a little stinkier! 💨 As the Community Manager of Playtika Tech & AI, I live and breathe all things about AI & Gaming. 😈But on April 1st, I & Shai Oliva Alon decided to take AI to a whole new level - post about the LSM (Large Smelly Model)! Before you ask, LLM stands for Large Language Model, an AI that generates human-like text. But we flipped the script and created the LSM - an AI that generates smells based on text prompts! More here: https://lnkd.in/dPkgHByu I posted at noon and eagerly awaited the community's reaction. 😈Around 4 PM, a post from D-ID caught my attention. They had concocted Olfactory Rendering Algorithm (ORA), inspired by LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation of Large Language Models). What were the odds?! Here is the post: https://lnkd.in/dsDrt_RU 😈Seizing the moment, I reached out D-ID's community manager Sheldon Bruck, proposing to cross-promote our posts. After all, LSM could be the breakthrough that makes ORA possible! 😈Our smelly universe grew bigger as another page, Replai, covered the LSM "news" too! If Marvel has its own universe why can't I? Even if it stinks.... 😅

This is my new work uniform: Two weeks ago several of my coworkers were fired for calling for an end to Project Nimbus - a joint contract between Google and Amazon signed in 2021 which provides cloud services to the Israeli government and its military. This was the most recent of many attempts by workers to end the contract. Google should not be providing its services to ANY military. As a global company with billions of users, in nearly every country, making more money than many GDPs, it is an abuse of power and inhumane. Any technology can be used for benefit or detriment. A hammer can build a house and also bash a skull. I’m proud of the technology that Google has developed to facilitate early cancer detection, connect people during crisis and facilitate accessibility. Those same technologies will be used by militaries to kill. Google has a duty to be a responsible steward of its products. Aside from the moral issues, Google’s military contracts are a sign of competitive weakness. To enter this space should be a sign to investors that Google is desperate to maintain revenue growth. Google is a publicly traded company owned by the totality of its shareholders - not its leadership. If leadership is not making good decisions, we have a right to change its leadership. @notechforapardtheid #ceasefirenow #stopfundinggenocide #freepalestine

The 1st AR Laptop ever! I tried Sightful's #SpaceTop a year ago and also wrote about my experience with it, and now it's even better! I'm gonna try it again soon at their HQ in Tel Aviv, but it was already a revolutionary product when I tried it back then. So, I'm looking forward to it! Another disruptive technology coming from the #startupNation, Israel. This time in the XR and Spatial Computing field, which is the next big thing after Personal Computing and Smartphones, as we've seen even from Apple with their Apple Vision Pro (which I also tried and covered back in February). What a time to be alive! 😎 Well done Sightful!
