BREAKING: $AMD AMD Acquires World Labs in $8.2 Billion Deal for AI Expertise. Stanford professor and World Labs founder Fei-Fei Li sits down with Jany Talk to break down what everyone gets wrong about AI - and why she still believes in people, not machines. Fei-Fei Li co-created ImageNet before most of the world understood why data would matter more than algorithms. She's spent a decade building computer vision and robotics from the ground up. Now, as the founder of World Labs, she's betting on spatial intelligence as the missing piece of AGI - and she's here to tell you why almost everyone is thinking about AI wrong. Fei-Fei Li: "AI Is a Tool, Not the World" - On Curiosity, AGI and Being Human. Full interview here:

The moment is right to push forward into a new frontier for AI — one that is as fundamental as language, says Fei-Fei Li. That frontier is visual spatial intelligence. With Justin Johnson (Justin Johnson), her cofounder at World Labs, and a16z's martin_casado, Fei-Fei explains what unlocking this technology could mean, and why we’re in the midst of a “Cambrian explosion”:

World Labs CEO Dr. Fei-Fei Li says AI must change how we teach and evaluate students: "AI must change learning. AI must change K-16 learning." "The most precious resource of our entire world is human capital." "When we have gotten the technology that can answer standardized tests... when AI can do better than an average human, it's not about humans are bad. It's about we need to change the education system." "We need to change how we evaluate. We need to change the way we empower teachers to educate the next generation of students where they can use these tools, be empowered, and do things that we can never imagine." "All of the kids today should not be scared of AI. They should feel the human agency to lead AI, to use AI in the right way, and to use AI to make the impact that they want to make for the world."

📁 Fei-Fei Li founder of World Labs, says the next leap in AI is not language. Human intelligence does not just speak, it moves, perceives, and acts in the physical world. Spatial intelligence is the real core of intelligence. From text to space, from models to 3D and 4D worlds, from understanding words to interacting with reality. The next chapter is not read, it is inhabited.

Dr. Fei-Fei Li (Fei-Fei Li) is known as the “godmother of AI.” For the past two decades, she’s been at the center of AI’s most significant breakthroughs, including: - Spearheading ImageNet, the dataset that sparked the AI explosion we’re living through right now. - Leading work at Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (SAIL) - Serving as Chief Scientist of AI/ML at Google Cloud - Co-founding Stanford’s Institute for Human-Centered AI - Serving on the United Nations AI Scientific Advisory Board - Being named as Time's 100 most influential people in AI In this conversation, Fei-Fei shares the rarely told history of how we got to today—and what comes next. We discuss: 🔸 The backstory on ImageNet 🔸 Why robotics faces unique challenges compared with language models and what’s needed to overcome them 🔸 Why Fei-Fei believes AI won’t replace humans but will require us to take responsibility for ourselves 🔸 Why world models and spatial intelligence represent the next frontier in AI, beyond large language models 🔸 The surprising applications of Marble, from movie production to psychological research 🔸 How to participate in AI regardless of your role 🔸 Much more Listen now 👇 • YouTube: • Spotify: • Apple: Thank you to our wonderful sponsors for supporting the podcast: 🏆 Figma Make — A prompt-to-code tool for making ideas real: 🏆 Justworks — The all-in-one HR solution for managing your small business with confidence: 🏆 Sinch — Build messaging, email, and calling into your product:

Asked why humanoid robots still can't load a dishwasher after $6 billion in funding, Fei-Fei Li says the number is too small: Emily Chang: "Funding for humanoids hit $6 billion, but they still can't load my dishwasher as fast as I can. They still can't go get my Amazon packages. Will world models, world labs, close the gap between hype and reality?" "That's a loaded question, Emily." "First of all, robotics is gonna be one of the most important revolution in human industrialization." "$6 billion is too small, right?" "If you look at self-driving cars investment, if you look at language models investment, it took way more than six billion dollars." The $6 billion is Chang's total for humanoid funding, not Li's own measurement. Chang also says World Labs, which Li co-founded, has raised $1 billion of its own. - Fei-Fei Li (Fei-Fei Li), co-founder and CEO of World Labs and Stanford professor, with Emily Chang on The Circuit (Bloomberg TV), August 19, 2026.
