Before AI can understand the physical world, it needs data about the physical world. Not just images. Spatial environments. Real streets, buildings, parks, stores, museums, and public spaces captured in 3D. OVER has already reconstructed 290,000+ real-world 3D scenes, creating a growing dataset for the next generation of spatial and embodied AI. And this is exactly the kind of real-world spatial data AI companies are looking for. We're already in conversations with multiple AI and Robotics companies exploring how OVER's dataset can support the development and training of models that need to understand the physical world. The next AI race will be about real-world data.

AI models are trained on roughly 20 trillion tokens, or every public text on the internet. and it's still not enough. The next frontier isn't more text, It's the physical world, and 375ai is already capturing it.

Robotics doesn't have a model problem. It has a data problem. And underneath that, a deployment problem. Physical AI progresses through real-world interaction. Robots act, fail, recover, and adapt. Without shared standards, every team relearns the same lessons in isolation. Deployment standards determine whether learning compounds or resets. PrismaX is the service layer for physical AI. We run the systems that define how robots get deployed, standardize how interaction data is generated, and integrate human judgment where models fall short, turning fragmented robotics capability into deployable infrastructure. Our Mission: Enable people and robots to work together by setting the standards that allow physical AI systems to learn and improve through real-world operation. Our Vision: A world where intelligent robots are deployed responsibly and at scale, supported by systems that embed human judgment into how intelligence advances. The next chapter for physical AI is about turning real-world operation into scalable intelligence. More soon.

Demis Hassabis says an “AlphaFold moment” for the physical world could be close—real robots doing useful tasks reliably in the real world. Gemini was built multimodal so a future assistant can understand what you see on a phone or glasses. That same “understand the world” ability is a direct bridge into robotics, says Demis Hassabis. Physical intelligence becomes real when robots stop being demos and start being dependable helpers.

at Niantic Spatial 🌎, we're building the real-world model for physical AI. we believe the next generation of AI will move beyond the screen, into real-world environments where some of the hardest problems need to be solved. with high-fidelity gaussian splats as the foundation – robots, AI agents, & autonomous systems can see, localize, understand, & operate in the environments that matter most.

Explore where physical AI is headed next with the people shaping it. On Feb. 10 at 9 a.m. PT, join Ming‑Yu, Vice President of Research at NVIDIA, and Chubby♨️ from Superintelligence, for a conversation on how NVIDIA Cosmos reframes AI for a world of robots, AVs, and vision-driven systems. We'll dig into: ✅ Cosmos' origins and designing models for the physical world ✅ The scientific ideas and architectures behind Cosmos and its open models ✅ How open, reasoning-capable physical AI is changing how teams prototype, deploy, and iterate ✅ What a future of AI systems that understand space, time, and causality could unlock If you’re thinking into real‑world AI, this is the conversation to catch ➡️

The coming merger of AI agents with the physical world. @iddris, founder/CEO of Open Matter and I have a wide-ranging conversation about how the next platform shift may not be just AI chat, robotics, smart glasses, or autonomous cars separately. It may be the connective tissue between all of them. This video teaches viewers that the next wave of AI agents will not just operate inside apps, browsers, calendars, and spreadsheets. The real frontier is agents that can understand, coordinate, and act in the physical world. Iddris explains a vision for “agentic infrastructure for atoms”: systems that let AI agents manage physical objects, deliveries, storage, location, identity, logistics, robots, vehicles, and real-world context.
