Tech Giants and Longevity Gurus: A Week in Review
In a week marked by developments in artificial intelligence, electric vehicles, and consumer technology, several companies made headlines. OpenAI released its first production AI model to run on non-Nvidia hardware, while Rivian saw its software and services revenue surge. Elsewhere, Pinterest touted its search volume, and a longevity guru offered a costly program.
OpenAI deployed its new GPT-5.3-Codex-Spark coding model on chips from Cerebras, marking its first production AI model to run on non-Nvidia hardware, according to Ars Technica. The model delivers code at more than 1,000 tokens per second, roughly 15 times faster than its predecessor. "Cerebras has been a great engineering partner, and were excited about adding fast inference as a new platform capability," said Sachin Katti, head of infrastructure at OpenAI, according to Ars Technica.
Rivian's 2025 financial results revealed a shift in revenue streams. While automotive revenue fell, the company's software and services revenue grew more than threefold to $1.55 billion for the year, according to TechCrunch. This growth was largely driven by a joint venture with Volkswagen Group. Rivian reported a total revenue of $5.38 billion in 2025, up from $4.97 billion the prior year.
Pinterest CEO Bill Ready highlighted the platform's search capabilities, claiming it sees more searches than ChatGPT. According to third-party data, Pinterest sees 80 billion searches per month, generating 1.7 billion monthly clicks, compared to ChatGPT's 75 billion searches, according to TechCrunch. Ready added that more than half of Pinterest's searches are commercial in nature. However, Pinterest missed expectations on both revenue and earnings per share in the fourth quarter, according to TechCrunch.
In other news, fintech founder Bryan Johnson is offering a program called "Immortals" for $1 million per year, where he will teach individuals the protocol he has followed for the last five years, according to TechCrunch.
Finally, Samsung's flagship surround-sound HW-Q990 Dolby Atmos soundbar has seen only minor updates in recent years, leading to potential deals for consumers, according to Wired. The latest models have seen updates like a smaller subwoofer, new software features, and an upgrade to its HDMI ports for HDMI 2.1 support.
