It’s 2021 for AI while the rest of the startup market is stuck in 2024
Equity is starting the week with a look at stocks, crypto's post-ETF boom, the newest AI unicorn, how Canva is getting bigger, and developer sentiment around the Apple Vision Pro.

Show Notes
Here's the rundown:
- The Q4 2023 earnings cycle will kick off this week with names like Intel and Visa reporting results. The largest tech companies will start to report next week.
- Crypto is not enjoying a post-ETF boom for reasons that are yet to be nailed down. Then again, when have crypto price movements ever made complete sense?
- ElevenLabs is the newest AI unicorn. With $80 million in fresh capital, the synthetic voice startup now has oodles of cash to try and run its market.
- Canva is big! Who knew?
- Elsewhere, Crunchbase News reports that cybersecurity fundraising fell again last year. Given the number of breaches in the market, that feels off, yeah?
- Developers and Apple Vision Pro are not seeing eye to eye. Perhaps Apple should work to rectify its developer relationships?
- And in closing, it turns out you can slow down TikTok.
That's all for this morning, and we'll be back on Wednesday. Talk soon!
