**[World Modeling Startup General Intuition in Talks for $300 Million Financing]** BlockBeats reports that on June 19, New York-based startup General Intuition is in discussions for approximately $300 million in financing. The company is developing a foundational model to train AI agents on how to move and act within space and time. This financing round comes just eight months after General Intuition spun off independently from the gaming video upload and sharing platform Medal. At that time, the company completed a $134 million seed round of financing. If this round is successfully completed, it will raise the company’s valuation to slightly over $2 billion. According to sources, the company has already secured backing from investors including Jeff Bezos and Eric Schmidt, as well as existing investors Khosla Ventures and General Catalyst. General Intuition was founded and is led by Medal co-founder Pim de Witte, who manages the company alongside co-founders Eloi Alonso, Adam Jelley, and Vincent Micheli. All of these co-founders are researchers specializing in technologies related to world modeling and simulation.
