Our take

Since the widened attention placed on generative AIs such as Chat GPT, it seems that investors have intensified their interest in general intelligence. Imbue is one of the most recent AI research and training companies to step into the limelight after it achieved unicorn status in a $200 million Series B funding round in 2023.

With competition including the likes of OpenAI and Anthropic, Imbue researches and improves the reasoning of AI models. Its focus on foundational AI means that its training has a wide range of lucrative applications. Using a full-stack approach (essentially building its tech from scratch) enables the creation of feedback loops that gradually develop even better AI models.
