This is absolutely god damn ridiculous at this point. NVIDIA is effectively bailing out anyone in the AI industry as a means of inflating their valuations and keeping them buying compute. Sorry, perplexity is not worth $30 billion in anything other than the circularverse

Why it worked

Opens with a short, self-contained line that is easy to take in at a glance.
Uses concrete numbers instead of vague claims, which makes it credible and quotable.
The opening line stands alone, so it reads completely before the post is expanded.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Short sentences keep the pace up, so the reader never has to re-read a line.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: blunt
Mechanisms: Specificity
Written for: People building with AI
