Layer 4: Foundation Models & Intelligence as World Labs

**World Labs** is an AI company founded by renowned AI researcher Fei-Fei Li, focused on building Large World Models (LWMs) — AI systems that understand and generate 3D spatial environments. World Labs aims to give AI the ability to perceive, understand, and interact with the three-dimensional world.

While most foundation models operate on text or 2D images, World Labs is developing models that understand spatial relationships, physics, depth, and 3D structure. The company's technology can generate 3D scenes from images and text, with potential applications in robotics, gaming, simulation, architecture, and virtual worlds.

World Labs represents the frontier of world models and embodied AI — developing the spatial intelligence that future AI agents will need to operate effectively in three-dimensional environments, whether virtual or physical.
