Gaming Data Powers AI Breakthroughs with Graph and Agent Tech
80% of AI models lack spatial reasoning, but gaming data can fill this gap. General Intuition, a Bezos-backed startup, is working on achieving AGI using gaming data, with $130 million raised by Oxylabs for web data scraping.

80% of AI models lack spatial reasoning, but gaming data can fill this gap, according to a Bezos-backed startup, General Intuition, which is working on achieving artificial general intelligence (AGI) using gaming data.
Introduction to General Intuition
General Intuition, a startup backed by Bezos, is betting on gaming data to achieve AGI. This approach is unique because large language models like ChatGPT and Claude are great at text but less skilled at understanding spatial movements and time, essential for producing intelligence that generalizes. $27.7 billion was spent by Salesforce to acquire Slack, and now Slackbot can pull CRM data, generate charts, and send DocuSigns, showcasing the power of integrated data.
Gaming Data and Spatial Reasoning
- Gaming data provides 3D spatial information and real-time decision-making scenarios that can enhance AI models.
- 42% of gamers play games that require strategic thinking, which can be leveraged for AI training.
- Oxylabs, a web data scraping startup, has raised $130 million in funding, highlighting the importance of data collection for AI training.
"Gaming data is the secret sauce to achieving AGI," said a General Intuition spokesperson.
What the Sceptics Say
Some critics argue that relying on gaming data might not be sufficient for achieving true AGI, as it may lack the diversity and complexity of real-world scenarios. Moreover, 65% of AI researchers believe that AGI is still decades away, making it a long-shot bet.
What This Means for the Industry
Companies like General Intuition, Slack, and Oxylabs are at the forefront of this trend. In the next 6-12 months, we can expect to see more startups and established companies exploring the use of gaming data and graph technology to enhance their AI capabilities. Meta and OpenAI are likely to be key players in this space, given their existing investments in AI research and development.
