General Intuition

Advanced

An AI lab training world models and agents on massive amounts of gameplay footage.

General Intuition is an AI research company headquartered in New York, spun out in October 2025 from Medal, a platform for sharing gameplay clips; its CEO is Medal founder Pim de Witte. Its premise is that Medal holds enormous volumes of player gameplay recordings, complete with logged keyboard and mouse input — effectively a huge set of observation-action pairs — that can be used to train world models and agents that understand space and time and can predict the consequences of an action, which can then be transferred to physical settings like robotics. It has released MIRA, a multiplayer world model built with Kyutai and Epic Games, trained on Rocket League footage and running in real time at 20 frames per second. On funding, it raised a seed round of about $134 million in October 2025, then $320 million at a $2.3 billion valuation in June 2026; TechCrunch reported that by August it was in talks for a new round at a $6 billion pre-money valuation, with robotics as a key focus.
