Maintaining a discreet profile since his departure from Twitter, Agrawal's new endeavour aims to pioneer software tailored for LLM (Large Language Model) developers.
Agrawal, ousted by Elon Musk in a dramatic turn of events, has quietly set his sights on a new venture - an AI startup - securing an impressive $30 million in initial funding.
Maintaining a discreet profile since his departure from Twitter, Agrawal's new endeavour aims to pioneer software tailored for LLM (Large Language Model) developers, sources familiar with the matter revealed to The Information.
Agrawal's departure from Twitter was intertwined with Elon Musk's rapid takeover and subsequent rebranding of the platform to 'X'.
The ensuing months were riddled with a rollercoaster of negotiations and legal confrontations. Musk's initial bid to acquire Twitter for $54.20 per share faced hurdles, including his demand for more transparent data on bot activity.
Finally, Musk executed a significant restructuring, parting ways with Agrawal, former CFO Ned Segal, and ex-chief legal officer Vijaya Gadde.
