Poolside, a startup developing an AI coding assistant aimed at software engineers, has raised half a billion dollars in a Series B round.

“We believe software development will be the first broad capability where AI will reach and surpass human-level intelligence,” Poolside CEO Jason Warner said in a press release. “Through our team, our applied research, and a powerful revenue engine, poolside will bring AI for software development so that anyone in the world can build.” The Series B funding allowed Poolside to bring 10,000 Nvidia GPUs online to train future models, Warner said, and will bolster the company’s go-to-market and R&D efforts.
