Nvidia-backed ThinkLabs AI raises $28 million to tackle a growing power grid crunch
The funding marks a significant escalation in the race to apply AI not just to software and content generation, but to the physical infrastructure that powers modern life. While most AI investment headlines have centered on large language models and generative tools, ThinkLabs is pursuing a different and arguably more consequential application: using physics-informed AI to model the behavior of electrical grids in real time, compressing engineering studies that once took weeks or months into minutes.

The enterprise voice AI market is in the middle of a land grab. ElevenLabs and IBM announced a collaboration just this week to bring premium voice capabilities into IBM's watsonx Orchestrate platform. Google Cloud has been expanding its Chirp 3 HD voices. OpenAI continues to iterate on its own speech synthesis. And the market underpinning all of this activity is enormous — voice AI crossed $22 billion globally in 2026, with the voice AI agents segment alone projected to reach $47.5 billion by 2034, according to industry estimates.
