Fei-Fei Li and Justin Johnson are pioneers in AI. While the world has only recently witnessed a surge in consumer AI, they have long been laying the groundwork for the innovations transforming industries today.With the recent launch of Marble, the first product from their company World Labs, we are revisiting this conversation to explore the ideas that started it all. World Labs is focused on spatial intelligence, building Large World Models that can perceive, generate, and interact with the 3D world. Marble brings that vision to life, allowing anyone, from individual creators to major platforms, to generate 3D scenes directly from text or image prompts and turn complex 3D creation into a simple, creative process.In this episode, a16z general partner Martin Casado talks with Fei-Fei and Justin about the journey from early AI winters to the rise of deep learning and multimodal AI. From foundational breakthroughs like ImageNet to the cutting-edge realm of spatial intelligence, they discuss the evolution of the field and what is next for innovation at World Labs. Timecode:0:00 – The Next Decade of AI2:45 – Origins: Backgrounds of the Founders6:50 – The Rise of Deep Learning & ImageNet8:00 – Algorithmic Unlocks: Compute, Data, and Supervised Learning12:00 – From Predictive to Generative AI16:20 – The Journey to Spatial Intelligence18:35 – Defining Spatial Intelligence21:15 – 3D Data, Computer Vision, and Breakthroughs23:15 – Reconstruction vs. Generation in Computer Vision24:45 – Spatial Intelligence vs. Language Models29:00 – Applications: Virtual, Augmented, and Physical Worlds39:55 – Building World Labs: Team and Vision41:55 – The North Star: Measuring Success in Spatial Intelligence Resources:Learn more about World Labs: <a href="https://www.worldlabs.ai/">https://www.worldlabs.ai</a>Learn more about Marble: <a href="https://marble.worldlabs.ai">https://Marble.WorldLabs.ai</a>Find Fei-Fei on Twitter: <a href="https://x.com/drfeifei">https://x.com/drfeifei</a>Find Justin on Twitter: <a href="https://x.com/jcjohnss">https://x.com/jcjohnss</a>Find Martin on Twitter: <a href="https://x.com/martin_casado">https://x.com/martin_casado</a> Stay Updated: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to like, subscribe, and share with your friends!Find a16z on X: <a href="https://x.com/a16z">https://x.com/a16z</a>Find a16z on LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16z">https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16z</a>Listen to the a16z Podcast on Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYX?si=70ca2d87cf9342d9">https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYX</a>Listen to the a16z Podcast on Apple Podcasts: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711</a>Follow our host: <a href="https://x.com/eriktorenberg">https://x.com/eriktorenberg</a>Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.
