General Intuition, a Bezos-backed startup, is training foundation models for physical AI on millions of hours of video-game data, arguing that gameplay is richer training signal than internet text for robotics and that LLMs alone 'don't have what it takes' for AGI. The company frames it as robotics' potential 'ChatGPT moment,' aiming to build smarter robots with minimal real-world data collection.
