Our earlier article on funding talks around AI inference infrastructure highlighted how startups like Modal Labs were pursuing large rounds at sharply higher valuations as demand for running trained models surged. We also noted that the sector’s rapid growth is colliding with high compute costs and operational risks, underscoring why investors are increasingly focused on who controls critical infrastructure layers that power AI at scale.
