- ‘Godmother of AI’ and tech entrepreneurs draw investors by pivoting from chatbots to ‘world models’ saying AI has to read the room, not just books
AI researchers and entrepreneurs are shifting focus from chatbots to 'world models' to enable AI systems to understand and interact with physical environments. Louis Castricato founded Overworld to develop AI that navigates real-world contexts, while Fei-Fei Li and Yann LeCun advocate for world models that incorporate spatial and temporal understanding. Critics argue current language models lack the capability to handle physical tasks like object manipulation.
- All the world’s a robot-staging ground for tech entrepreneurs building ‘physical AI’
AI researchers are shifting focus from language models to 'world models' that enable physical AI systems to navigate real-world environments. Entrepreneurs like Louis Castricato (Overworld) and Fei-Fei Li (World Labs) are developing AI capable of understanding spatial and temporal dynamics, while Yann LeCun (Advanced Machine Intelligence Labs) emphasizes predicting action consequences. This movement aims to move beyond text-based AI to robots and interactive applications.
