## AI 摘要

从游戏剪辑平台Medal剥离的AI初创公司General Intuition正洽谈约3亿美元融资，估值超20亿美元。本轮距其1.34亿美元种子轮仅8个月，投资方包括Jeff Bezos、Eric Schmidt及现有投资者Khosla Ventures、General Catalyst。公司利用Medal每年20亿条视频（来自1000万月活用户）训练具身AI与世界模型，通过第一人称交互数据实现空间-时间推理。OpenAI曾试图收购Medal。资金将用于扩大算力，计划夏末或初秋发布新产品。

General Intuition, the New York-based startup building a foundation model that trains AI agents how to move through space and time, is in talks to raise around $300 million, sources familiar with the matter told TechCrunch.

The raise comes eight months after General Intuition spun out of Medal, a platform for uploading and sharing video game clips, with a $134 million seed round. The fresh funds would bring the startup’s valuation up to just over $2 billion, sources say.

Sources tell TechCrunch General Intuition has secured funds from backers including Jeff Bezos and Eric Schmidt, as well as existing investors Khosla Ventures and General Catalyst.

Pim de Witte, who co-founded Medal, founded and leads General Intuition alongside co-founders Eloi Alonso, Adam Jelley, and Vincent Micheli — researchers who bring expertise in world modeling and simulation.

The startup trains embodied AI and world models using Medal’s dataset of 2 billion videos per year from 10 million monthly active users. The startup’s pitch is that such a dataset — unique because it allows AI to learn from interactive, first-person gameplay — is the perfect base to teach machines deep spatial-temporal reasoning, allowing them to perceive, anticipate, and interact in real time in simulation.

That dataset has reportedly attracted the attention of OpenAI, which previously attempted to acquire Medal. And sources say OpenAI hasn’t been the only big AI lab to come knocking.

The world model space that General Intuition is playing in is heating up. Startups like Runway, Decart, and World Labs have all released world models recently, and Google’s Genie 3 recently began integrating Google Maps data for more real-world simulation capabilities.

All of these companies see gaming and robotics training as near-term commercial use cases, but General Intuition takes a different approach: it builts world models to train agents, not to sell them. The agents are the product, and the startup’s unique dataset gives it a path to viability.

General Intuition will use the funds to scale up its compute capacity so it can release a new product by the end of summer or early fall, according to a source familiar with the matter.
