Rabbit CEO Jesse Lyu isn't thinking too far ahead

That's a good question. I want to be accurate, but it's somewhere around 50 million total in the whole lifespan. Last part was 35 million led by Sound Venture and also Hostel Venture and Amazon Alexa Finance Synergist. So last round was 35. And if you consider all the money together, I think it's around 50.

No, but I think talking about competition, money is one part of it. I've considered myself a veteran because I've done startup before. I know how it works. Certainly, money is very important, probably most important in the early couple of years, but I think... When we talk about competition, we ultimately want to ship products to consumers, right?

Because the way I look at it is that people are not buying electricity. Electricity is basically controlled by here in California, South California Edison, right? You have an address, you have to pay for it, regardless of how much electricity you're using. But I think People are ultimately buying microwaves, cars, motorcycles, televisions. People are buying products powered by electricity.

I was actually invited to the meeting, but I'm launching the LAN playground yesterday, so I couldn't be there in person. But they're offering an API for people to build an agent for it. But yesterday, we dropped a LAN playground, which you can go to any website and just do it by voice. So I think computation is a different magnitude. I think money is definitely important.
