New AI Startup Lets Computer Programs Access Real-Time Information from the Web

Parallel Web Systems, founded by ex-Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal, just raised money at a $2 billion valuation. The company solves a basic problem: most AI systems learn from old data and can't see what's happening on the web right now. Their software converts live web content into a format AI models can read, enabling them to analyze current markets or generate code based on today's information.
