General Intuition CEO Pim de Witte (Pim de Witte) says: "Most of AI is just glorified data science." And... "Yann LeCun is underrated." His reasoning? "Good models mostly are downstream from good data & simple things." General Intuition is taking a different approach than traditional LLMs: "We train models that can predict lots of different actions, where text is just a subset." When I asked why he thinks Yann LeCun is underrated..

SITUATION EXPLAINED: A new generation of AI labs are betting that world models are the path to general intelligence that can interact with the real world. We had General Intuition CEO Pim de Witte on MTS to explain what world models are, and why intuitively world models offer a clearer path towards general intelligence than LLMs. For humans, text is a technology for compressing information about the unfolding, three-dimensional world around us and communicating it to other people. When LLMs reason about the world, they do so by reconstructing the world through text. World models work by modeling the three-dimensional world at the architecture level and then allowing agents to interact with that world. Unlike an LLM, which understands space and time through text, world models perform spatial and temporal reasoning natively. General Intuition hopes to use world models to create embodied AI—machines that can reason and act in the real world. But other companies are also pushing the frontier in this space. Odyssey ML today announced a multi-agent world model, Agora-1. Their launch video shows four participants interacting with a real-time world model simulation of GoldenEye, a first-person shooter for the N64. A playable preview of the GoldenEye simulation is available on their site.

With enough data, robots and AI can learn “world models” that let them predict the results of their actions. These models are a way to learn how embodied AI agents can perform a wide variety of useful tasks — but they require a huge amount of data. The team at General Intuition General Intuition has a solution: use data from video games! Games teach movement, problem solving, and complex spatial reasoning, and they come in a staggering diversity of forms, covering a wide variety of problems. What’s more, the captured data is high-quality, without the noise or annotation error that can come from We sat down with Pim de Witte and Adam Jelley from the General Intuition team to learn more about their history, their plans, and their philosophy.
