The US does not have hypersonic capability at the necessary scale and at a cost the country can sustain. That's what Castelion is building and what the $1B series C scales.
I remember when @ravirajjain invested in the seed round of Skild AI. I thought the demonstration video was cool then...
Quite impressive to see how far their models have come.
Physical AI is coming. We just don't quite know the shape yet.
Skild AI's S1 just demonstrated it can learn a new workflow from a SINGLE video in context, with no task-specific post-training. That is what the GPT-3 moment in robotics looks like and Skild has shown the world's first demonstration of it over long horizon human labor tasks.
@Castelion is at the forefront of a generational shift in how the US tests, develops, and fields weapon systems at scale.
@hargsb@sean_pitt_ & Andrew have done the hard stuff from the start. They have put our country in a safer position and changed how our military deters
Castelion is proud to announce our $1 billion Series C. We’re growing fast and our mission hasn't changed: build the weapons required to deter the next major war, affordably, rapidly, and at massive scale.
This funding accelerates Blackbeard production, develops a longer-range
