Hi! Max from Nixtla here. Those are users of our open-source libraries. nixtlaverse.nixtla.io, not users of TimeGPT.
Closed-source. I'm not sure why this is interesting. ML API companies hoping to hit it rich are a dime a dozen.
With the exception of a few like OpenAI, I can't imagine much success over open source models.
If it can genuinely predict stocks, start a hedge fund.

The link to the anomaly detection use case is broken https://docs.nixtla.io/docs/tutorials-anomaly_detection

Training a model with multiple billion floating point parameters on only 100 billion data points feels like a bad idea.

I'm immediately skeptical af if there is nothing more explicit than this. That's handwaving bs. Top three means nothing if I don't have proper data.

That's not actually true, right? Surely that's a lie? I find it very unlikely that these huge companies are actually using this, especially considering how sketchy the website is (the About page doesn't list any employees/executives, there are no case studies, no white papers describing what this product even is.)
I get the impression this product only exists to scam investors who have unrealistic expectations of AI.
