🌱 Google’s X Launches Heritable Agriculture to Revolutionize Crop Yields Using AI

This week, Google’s X “moonshot factory” announced the spinout of a groundbreaking startup—Heritable Agriculture. This new company aims to transform agriculture by leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to improve crop yield and make farming more sustainable.

🍀 While plants are naturally efficient, the agricultural industry heavily strains our planet, contributing to 25% of greenhouse gas emissions, excessive groundwater use, and soil erosion. Heritable is tackling these issues by analyzing vast datasets to help farmers optimize plant growth and make agriculture more environmentally friendly.

🤖 Using AI, Heritable studies plant genomes to identify traits that could lead to higher yields, lower water usage, and better carbon storage. The startup is focused on enhancing traditional breeding methods, with future plans to incorporate gene editing techniques like CRISPR for more advanced plant optimization.

With backing from investors including Google, Heritable Agriculture is set to commercialize these innovations and help bring sustainable farming into the future 🌍

🔵 Some shareholders of a16z-backed Divvy Homes may not see a dime from $1B sale

Divvy Homes, a rent-to-own startup backed by a16z, is set to be acquired by Brookfield Properties for $1 billion. However, some shareholders may not receive any payouts from the sale. Divvy has raised over $700 million from investors but is selling at half its peak valuation of $2.3 billion. Following the sale, the company plans to repay debts and preferred shareholders, potentially leaving common shareholders with nothing.

Divvy's CEO, Adena Hefets, indicated that the decision to sell was difficult and came after extensive reviews of the company's options amid challenging market conditions, including rising mortgage rates. Despite this disappointing financial outcome for some, Hefets expressed pride in the impact the company had on its customers.

⚠️ Hydrogen tax credit rules give startups clarity while boosting nuclear and carbon capture

The U.S. Treasury has finalized rules for hydrogen producers to qualify for tax credits under section 45V of the Inflation Reduction Act, providing much-needed clarity for hydrogen startups. These rules, which took over two years to develop, aim to promote cleaner hydrogen production methods and prevent additional greenhouse gas emissions.

Producers can earn tax credits up to $3 per kilogram based on their emissions throughout the hydrogen lifecycle. The new regulations allow existing nuclear power plants to contribute electricity to hydrogen production, and certain fossil fuel plants with carbon capture technology can also qualify. While the rules are welcomed by the industry, some stakeholders seek more flexibility regarding electricity sourcing and requirements. Overall, the legislation is seen as a significant step towards supporting hydrogen as a cleaner alternative in heavy industry and transportation.

❕FTC orders AI accessibility startup accessiBe to pay $1M for misleading advertising

❕ Inside the wild fall and last-minute revival of Bench, the VC-backed accounting startup that imploded over the holidays

Bench, a Canadian accounting startup backed by $113 million in venture capital, abruptly shut down on December 27, 2024, leaving thousands of small business owners unable to access their accounts during tax season. The shutdown followed multiple rounds of layoffs and issues with their AI and automation strategies, which failed to deliver promised efficiencies.

The sudden closure was caused by a bank calling in their venture debt, leading to immediate layoffs without severance. However, media attention surrounding the shutdown prompted interest from potential buyers. Jesse Tinsley, CEO of Employer .com, quickly negotiated a deal to acquire Bench, saving many jobs and customer accounts.

Despite the acquisition, uncertainties remain about Bench's future, including concerns over service quality and the lack of prior accounting experience at Employer .com. The company plans to rehire former staff and honor existing customer contracts but faces challenges in ensuring a smooth transition.

🔺 Internal SpaceX documents show the sweet stock deals offered to investors like a16z, Gigafund

Internal SpaceX documents reveal significant stock deals offered to select investors, including Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), Gigafund, and others, allowing them to purchase shares at a steep discount. For instance, in a May 2022 tender offer, shares were sold to employees at $70 each, a notable drop from the $270 price during primary sales. This disparity arises because employees hold common stock, while investors typically acquire preferred stock with added benefits like dividends and liquidation preferences.

The documents show that preferred shareholders would be owed the first $6.67 billion in the event of a sale, a figure expected to increase with additional funding. Notably, a16z was authorized to buy nearly 4.3 million shares, while Gigafund, associated with SpaceX board members, and other firms also received substantial allocations. Despite the favorable terms for these investors, the documents highlight the complexities and potential risks for common shareholders, especially in a low-sale scenario.

🔄 OpenAI failed to deliver the opt-out tool it promised by 2025

OpenAI has not delivered the promised "Media Manager" tool, which was intended to allow creators to control how their works are used in AI training data. Initially announced in May, the tool aimed to identify and manage copyrighted content but has reportedly not been prioritized internally. OpenAI has faced criticism over its current ad hoc opt-out methods, which many creators find inadequate.

The company is also dealing with multiple lawsuits from artists and creators claiming unauthorized use of their works. Despite missing its self-imposed deadline, OpenAI has not provided updates on the Media Manager's status or potential launch date. Experts express skepticism about whether such a tool could effectively address creators' concerns or resolve ongoing legal issues surrounding AI and intellectual property.
