The company is betting on recursive self-improvement: AI systems that autonomously find their own weaknesses and redesign themselves in an accelerating loop, which it calls \"the fastest path to superintelligence.\"\n\nThe round was backed by GV, Greycroft, Nvidia and AMD. Beyond Socher, the eight co-founders include ex-Meta FAIR research director Yuandong Tian, DeepMind veteran and UCL professor Tim Rocktaschel, Vision Transformer co-author Alexey Dosovitskiy, and Jeff Clune. AI textbook author Peter Norvig serves as an adviser.\n\nFounded only about four months ago, the company plans to run a \"Level 1\" autonomous training system and is targeting a public launch in mid-2026. Notably, it has yet to publish concrete technical results or research."}}
