  "summary": "Ghost, a company founded by 19-year-old Zain Javaid, has emerged from stealth with an $11 million seed round led by a16z. The company is developing a computer designed specifically for AI agents, called Core, which costs $3,499.\n\nCore includes an Nvidia RTX Pro 4000 SFF Blackwell GPU, a type of chip commonly used to run AI models. According to Javaid, the idea behind Core is to centralize a person's data into one piece of hardware that can continuously run AI agents to act as an assistant, perform tasks, and understand a person's life.\n\nOther investors in the seed round include Abstract, Audacious Ventures, SV Angel, and Nova. Javaid's founding team includes Nicholas Chua, 19, Yifei Chen, 24, and Gautam Sharda, 23.",
