Yann LeCun’s newly launched venture AMI Labs has revealed that it will develop “world models” to create intelligent systems that understand the real world. The startup, headquartered in Paris with additional offices in Montreal, New York, and Singapore, is led by executive chairman LeCun and CEO Alex LeBrun, a former health‑AI founder. AMI Labs aims to apply its technology to high‑stakes fields such as healthcare, industrial automation, robotics, and wearable devices, emphasizing reliability, controllability, and safety. The company plans to license its models to industry partners while contributing to open research. Leer más →

Microsoft AI chief Mustafa Suleyman revealed a new team dedicated to creating a "humanist superintelligence" that is deliberately limited in autonomy and designed to serve humanity. The initiative emphasizes keeping humans "at the top of the food chain" and rejects narratives of a race to artificial general intelligence. Suleyman outlined three primary applications: an AI companion for learning and productivity, support for the healthcare sector, and breakthroughs in clean‑energy science. The move follows a new agreement with OpenAI that lets Microsoft pursue AGI independently or with partners, while leveraging OpenAI’s intellectual property. Leer más →

OpenAI has finalized the conversion of its for‑profit arm into a public benefit corporation, now called OpenAI Group PBC, while its nonprofit parent, the OpenAI Foundation, retains a substantial equity stake. The restructuring, approved after negotiations with state attorneys general and a legal dispute with co‑founder Elon Musk, positions the nonprofit to own up to $100 billion in equity and maintain oversight of the company. Alongside the corporate overhaul, OpenAI confirmed a fresh partnership with Microsoft, and the leadership will host a livestream Q&A to discuss the changes and future plans, including a focus on healthcare, AI resilience, and the pursuit of artificial general intelligence.

The Cleveland Clinic is collaborating with San Francisco‑based startup Piramidal to develop an artificial‑intelligence model that continuously analyzes electroencephalogram (EEG) data from intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Built on a foundation model trained with nearly a million hours of EEG recordings, the system aims to flag neurological abnormalities in seconds, giving clinicians real‑time insight into brain health. After retrospective fine‑tuning, the partnership plans a controlled live‑patient trial within the next six to eight months, followed by a gradual rollout across ICU beds. The initiative also raises ethical questions about brain data use and storage. Leer más →
