    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Fei-Fei Li, the renowned computer scientist known as the “godmother of AI,” has created a startup dubbed World Labs.

    World Labs hopes to use human-like processing of visual data to make AI capable of advanced reasoning, Reuters reported in May.

    Li is best known for her contributions to computer vision, a branch of AI dedicated to helping machines interpret and comprehend visual information.

    Li founded World Labs while on partial leave from Stanford, where she co-directs the university’s Human-Centered AI Institute.

    In a Ted Talk in April, Li further explained the field of research her startup will work on advancing, which involves algorithms capable of realistically extrapolating images and text into three-dimensional environments and acting on those predictions, using a concept known as “spatial intelligence.” This could bolster work in various fields such as robotics, augmented reality, virtual reality, and computer vision.

    The investment in World Labs reflects a trend where venture capitalists eagerly align themselves with ambitious AI companies, spurred by the surprise success of OpenAI’s ChatGPT, which rapidly achieved a valuation exceeding $80 billion.
