Ngekwindla edlule lapho i-Vercel iphinda kathathu inani layo laya ku-$9 billion, abaqalisi banquma ukwenza iphathi yesidlo sakusihlwa. Kube yithuba lokuthi uMalte Ubl, isikhulu esiphezulu sezobuchwepheshe senkampani, akhulume esitolo futhi axoxisane ngendawo eshintsha ngokushesha nabanye abaphathi beSilicon Valley abayishumi nambili—kanye nethuba lika-Vercel, inkampani eneminyaka engu-10 ubudala ethengisa inkundla yokuthuthukisa izinhlelo zokusebenza ze-AI namawebhusayithi, ukuze ibukise.
Okwendawo, abahleli bakhethe indawo engakavulwa nokuvulwa: Wolfsbane, indawo yokudlela ethambile ehlala endaweni yangaphambili yemboni endaweni ye-Dogpatch. Kusihlwa kwakuhlanganisa ama-cocktails, iwayini kanye nemenyu ye-razor clam ceviche, i-black caviar, umsila we-lobster kanye nedada elomile. Ngokwe-twist yasetiyetha, amamenyu ayephrintwe ngezinhlamvu ezibheke emuva futhi ayefundeka kuphela uma ephakanyiswe esibukweni.
Ngokushesha ngemali yebhizinisi futhi elangazelela ukunxenxa amakhasimende nabatshalizimali phakathi nokujaha kwe-AI, iziqalo zobuchwepheshe bezilokhu zizitika ngesidlo sangasese nokuzijabulisa muva nje, zigcwalisa izindawo zokudlela ezinhle kakhulu ze-Bay Area, amabha kanye nezindawo zokuphumula eziningi phakathi neviki—futhi ngezinye izikhathi nezimpelaviki, futhi. Kwezinye izimo, bathenga yonke indawo; ngezinye izikhathi, igumbi ngaphakathi kwebha noma yokudlela. Ukuthuthuka sekugcizelele isimo sokufanele ube lapha e-San Francisco njengamanje nokuthi ingcebo yesifunda ixhumene ngokujulile nobuchwepheshe kanye nokuthatheka kwayo kwakamuva: I-AI.
