According to TechCrunch, General Intuition has raised three hundred twenty million dollars to scale artificial intelligence trained on millions of hours of video gameplay. The company is betting that action data from games can help AI agents develop something closer to human intuition—the kind of quick decision-making and spatial awareness needed in complex, real-world scenarios like robotics. It's an intriguing wager: that the chaos and adaptability required in a video game environment could prepare AI to operate in the messy physical world.
