This news comes on the heels of a $100 million AI venture fund launched by the company on Oct. 2. As Cointelegraph reported, the fund is set up to support innovation and development in the generative AI space.

Generative AI is a burgeoning sector of machine learning that involves the use of models designed to produce human-like content such as text, images, audio or video files within the constraints of a specific training set. The most popular models, including OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Anthropic’s Claude 2, have been widely adopted for personal and enterprise use.
