In a dazzling display of tech-world bankroll flexing, Databricks surged to a $100 billion valuation thanks to a round co-led by Insight Partners and Thrive. CEO Ali Ghodsi admitted heās found a 'huge untapped AI agent market,' which sounds like a polite way of saying, 'Weāre throwing money at anything with a robot label.'
