World models are replacing large language models as the next wave of artificial intelligence investment and hype—and Fei-Fei Li’s World Labs has first-mover advantage. World Labs emerged from stealth in September 2024 with no product, $230 million in funding, and a billion-dollar valuation. Last February, four months after announcing its generative AI app Marble, which Li still refers to as “a proto-product,” it raised a billion dollars more. Why? Because AI, just a few years after LLMs such as ChatGPT and Claude began remaking the global economy, is already seeking its next act. Li believes it will center on what she calls “spatial intelligence”: AI that can go beyond next-word prediction and learn how the real world works. submitted by /u/_fastcompany
