General Intuition: $300M Raise for Spatial AI Agent Training

General Intuition, an AI startup, is in talks to raise about 300 million dollars. This funding round would value the company at just over 2 billion dollars. The New York-based company builds foundation models to teach AI agents how to reason through space and time. This potential new investment follows a 134 million dollar seed round eight months ago. Notable backers in the new round include Jeff Bezos and Eric Schmidt, alongside existing investors Khosla Ventures and General Catalyst. The company trains its models using two billion videos annually from video game clip platform Medal. This unique approach helps develop spatial-temporal reasoning in AI agents. The funds will help scale compute capacity for a new product launch planned for later this year. This matters because it shows significant investment in a new method for training AI.
