Amazon is in talks to acquire AI startup Decart for about $7 billion, according to The Wall Street Journal. Decart’s software lets developers switch between different AI chips, and the company is also building world models. Yahoo Finance’s Julie Hyman, Jake Conley and Pras Subramanian explain why chip portability matters as Big Tech builds its own chips, why Anthropic reportedly looked at Decart and passed, what the deal would mean for backers including Sequoia and Benchmark, and how it could challenge Nvidia’s push to keep the AI ecosystem on its hardware.
