Liquid AI, a new MIT spinoff, wants to build an entirely new type of AI

Liquid AI, a startup co-founded by robotics expert Daniela Rus along with Ramin Hasani, Mathias Lechner, and Alexander Amini, has raised a substantial amount of $37.5 million in funding from various VCs and organizations. The startup is focused on developing general-purpose AI systems powered by liquid neural networks, which are characterized by a small, flexible architecture requiring less computing power and featuring adaptability to changing circumstances. These liquid neural networks have demonstrated strong potential in applications such as autonomous navigation, showing the ability to adapt in unfamiliar environments.
