Thanks, your comment was the first one which linked the two.

Revolut is the biggest private company in all of Europe.

Perhaps it’s me but I still find it kinda wild that a single power outage in London can shut down Google DC and it can lead to Revolut shutting down for some time disrupting much of the economy which depended upon it

Perhaps this could’ve been prevented, which makes me wonder how much of code written at Revolut is ai generated and its ai policy?

If their infrastructure is tightly coupled to a cloud provider in a single region then that's what they need to be work on and not necessarily their AI policy.

As in not publicly traded? That's surprising, to be honest. How is that even measured?

IKEA is private. That's just from the top of my head. Pretty sure IKEA is way bigger than Revolut.

A simple google search or AI prompt can tell you that they are not the biggest private company in all of Europe by a decent margin.

		I suspect they might be if you were to squint a bit and invent a hypothetical valuation based on their latest funding round. But, yeah, certainly not by revenue, income, assets, number of employees, or any of the other metrics you might use for a private company.
