贝佐斯支持的 General Intuition 获 3.2 亿美元融资，利用游戏数据训练世界模型推动 AGI
Your gaming data could be the secret to AGI, according to this Bezos-backed startup
纽约初创公司 General Intuition 完成 3.2 亿美元融资，估值 23 亿美元，投资方包括 Coatue、Eric Schmidt、MIT 及 Google DeepMind 研究人员。该公司认为 ChatGPT、Claude 等大语言模型缺乏对物体在时空中运动的理解，游戏数据可填补这一空白。公司基于游戏数据训练世界模型，推动物理 AI 发展。CEO Pim de Witte 透露，公司从 Medal TV 拆分，已拒绝 OpenAI 的收购要约以保持独立，并推出 Nerve 平台，连接游戏玩家与数据标注及远程操作工作，应对 AI 对就业的冲击。
When it comes to achieving artificial general intelligence (AGI), large language models just don’t have what it takes. Models like ChatGPT and Claude are great at text, but they’re less skilled at understanding how things actually move through space and time—an essential skill for producing intelligence that generalizes. That gap, it turns out, might be filled by gaming data.That’s the bet behind General Intuition, a Bezos-backed, New York-based startupvalued at$2.3 billion that just closed a $320 million roundwith Coatue, Eric Schmidt, and researchers at MIT and Google DeepMind joining its list of investors.
On this episode of TechCrunch’sEquitypodcast, General Intuition CEO Pim de Witte joins Rebecca Bellan to dig into why world models trained on gaming data might be the next big leap in physical AI, how the company spun out of gaming platform Medal TV, and where the ethical red lines are when your models could end up being used for defense applications.
How eight minutes of real-world data was enough to get a robot navigating an office cold.
Why General Intuition turned down an acquisition offer reportedly from OpenAI to stay independent, and why having investors who back your mission is essential to building a generational company.
How the company is trying to get ahead of AI job displacement by building Nerve, a marketplace connecting gamers to data labeling and teleoperations work.
