French startup AMI Labs secured record funding from Nvidia and Samsung to develop AI that understands physical reality and eliminates "hallucinations."
AMI Labs, co-founded by Turing Award winner Yann LeCun, secured $1.03 billion in funding at a $3.5 billion valuation. Unlike traditional LLMs, LeCun’s technology learns from real-world video data to understand cause-and-effect in the physical world. This paves the way for reliable AI in healthcare and robotics. With offices in Paris, New York, and Singapore, the company remains committed to open-source research and global collaboration.
