Summary

General Intuition, a startup focused on training AI agents through world models, is reportedly in talks to raise $300 million, potentially pushing its valuation to over $2 billion. Founded by Pim de Witte and a team of researchers, the company leverages a massive dataset of first-person gameplay from the platform Medal to teach machines spatial-temporal reasoning. Unlike competitors focused on video generation, General Intuition aims to create specialized AI agents for real-time interaction. The funding will be used to scale compute capacity for an upcoming product launch later this year.
