Yann LeCun, the infamous AI researcher who notoriously said LLMs wouldn’t bring AGI, has now launched AMI Labs with a massive $1.03B seed round at a $3.5B valuation.
Their goal is to build a new breed of AI systems centered on "world models"—systems that can actually reason, plan, and have persistent memory beyond just predicting the next token.
With their new CEO Alex LeBrun leading the charge, they are operating across Paris, NY, Montreal, and Singapore to tackle this” long-term scientific endeavor.”
Will Yann reach AGI first 👀?
