Yann LeCun is launching AMI Labs, poaching top researchers from Meta and Google DeepMind to build world models beyond LLMs. Targeting a 3 billion Euro valuation, the startup uses Joint-Embedding Predictive Architecture (JEPA) to master physical reasoning. This marks a systemic shift from simple text prediction to autonomous machine intelligence. By challenging current scaling laws, LeCun aims to redefine the AI roadmap with more efficient, physics-aware architectures. 🌍
