OpenAI just made a $7B bet on physical security infrastructure.
Thrive Holdings — the AI company's investment vehicle — acquired ADT, the home security operator with 6 million subscribers. The deal puts OpenAI's capital into cameras, sensors, and field service networks.
This isn't a software play. It's edge compute wrapped in a 150-year-old monitoring business.
