I'll go ahead and be crass: nothing was going to happen without the money. I'm glad that Grok is getting real paying customers, but I imagine the burn rate is still pretty crazy, so thanks to Jeff first for RNI (I know a few people who were there, crazy smart and doing very nice work) and now Grok. I don't know where NuPIC/CLA is going (In short: I'm skeptical but am watching with great interest) but I admire the hell out of Jeff for putting so much of his time and energy and, yes, money into this.
