Andrew Dai and Yinfei Yang, former leaders from Google Gemini and Apple, have launched Elorian to tackle the core issue of visual reasoning for AGI. The startup is seeking a $50 million seed round to build native multi-modal models that process text, images, and video simultaneously. This approach targets a systemic evolution toward AI agents that can navigate software GUIs and physical logic without relying on text patches. It represents a significant shift from linguistic generation to direct world understanding as the key to AGI. 🚀
