Paris startup adds ‘universal compute’ weapon to France’s growing AI arsenal

A startup promising “universal AI compute” has joined France’s thriving artificial intelligence sector. Paris-based FlexAI emerged from stealth today with a €28.5mn war chest and an ambitious plan to “unlock the future of machine intelligence.” To pick that lock, FlexAI is rearchitecting compute infrastructure. The startup’s centrepiece is an on-demand cloud service. Set to launch later this year, the product will enable developers to build and train AI applications with heterogeneous compute architectures. An integrated software layer will abstract and orchestrate the workload to the optimal architecture.  As a result, users can apply multiple hardware configurations without complex code changes.…
