On April 14, Nomura economists stated that due to the continuous rise in crude oil prices and concerns over the supply of petroleum products, Japan is facing 'unprecedented risks' in the future, and the Bank of Japan is likely to delay its interest rate hike. Compared to the press conference in March, Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda expressed greater concern on Monday about the downside risks to the economy posed by conflicts in the Middle East. Ueda indicated that if the conflicts persist, they will impact Japanese businesses through disruptions in the supply chain.

According to monitoring by 1M AI News, previously undisclosed financial data from SpaceX's business segments shows that only the satellite internet service Starlink is generating cash, while the rocket launch and AI sectors are both incurring losses. Starlink generated $11.4 billion in revenue last year, a 50% year-on-year increase, accounting for 61% of SpaceX's total revenue. The adjusted EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization, plus stock-based compensation) was $7.2 billion, with a profit margin of 63%, higher than 50% in 2024 and 41% in 2023. After capital expenditures, Starlink's free cash flow was approximately $3 billion, making it the only profitable segment of SpaceX. The rocket launch business generated $4.1 billion in revenue, with only an 8% growth, and a free cash flow of about negative $3 billion. Most of SpaceX's over 160 launches last year were used to transport its own Starlink satellites, with limited external customer markets. The AI business (including the social platform X and the large model company xAI, which was incorporated into SpaceX in February this year with a valuation of $250 billion) generated $3.2 billion in revenue, a 23% increase, but burned nearly $14 billion annually. For reference, OpenAI and Anthropic burned approximately $9 billion and $4 billion last year, respectively, with SpaceX's AI segment exceeding the combined losses of both. In terms of revenue scale and growth rate, xAI also lags far behind OpenAI and Anthropic. The $3 billion free cash flow generated by Starlink is far from sufficient to cover the losses of the other two business segments. SpaceX's total capital expenditures were $20.7 billion, exceeding its total revenue. Overall free cash flow was approximately negative $14 billion. The Information previously reported that SpaceX had a net loss of nearly $5 billion last year. SpaceX's recent valuation of $1.25 trillion corresponds to 266 times EBITDA. For comparison, Meta is at 16 times, Alphabet at 25 times, Nvidia at 36 times, and even Tesla, known for its high valuation, is only at 119 times. SpaceX plans to go public in June this year, expected to be the largest IPO in history. The core issue of this IPO is clear: Can the growth prospects of Starlink support the massive losses of the other two business lines?

According to 1M AI News, Thinking Machines Lab, founded by former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati, has recruited two co-founders of the personalized AI startup Workshop Labs, CEO Luke Drago and CTO Rudolf Laine, and acquired the company's technology. The transaction amount has not been disclosed. Workshop Labs was established about a year ago, originating from a series of articles titled 'The Intelligence Curse' written by the two founders, which explore the economic consequences of human labor being replaced in the era of strong AI. The company's core proposition is that AI should enhance human capabilities rather than replace them, and it has built a privatized training and inference technology stack around this direction, achieving the fastest training speed for trillion-parameter models in its class. It has also developed an end-to-end product that allows non-technical users to customize models with their own data in just a few clicks. Thinking Machines had previously released the model customization tool Tinker, and Workshop Labs participated in testing before its official launch. This acquisition indicates that Thinking Machines is doubling down on the direction of model personalization, expanding from a single tool to a more complete technological roadmap. Murati stated on X: 'From Tinker to research funding to cutting-edge exploration, everything we do serves the same mission: to empower human civilization with AI.'
