Nvidia Reportedly in Talks to Invest Further in Reflection AI or Buy it

According to foreign media reports, Nvidia is in talks to deepen its investment in ​open-source startup Reflection AI or acquire it. It is reported that Reflection AI is a company founded in 2024 by former DeepMind ​researchers. On the 5th, it released its first open-weight ⁠model, Beam, ​as it seeks to compete in ​coding and agentic tasks with lower-cost Chinese models such as DeepSeek and ​Kimi. Nvidia is already a major financial backer and strategic investor in Reflection AI, having invested $800 million in the startup. The report says the two companies may sign an agreement within the next few weeks, but the negotiations could also fall apart. It added that although the terms of the agreement have not been disclosed, Reflection was valued at $25 billion during its fundraising in March last year.
