About Causal Labs
Causal Labs is a research lab building AI to learn physics. Our mission is general causal intelligence, to understand cause & effect towards solving civilization's most ambitious, unsolved problems. We're training a Large Physics foundation Model (LPM) to learn causality through weather, the most well-observed and consequential physical system.
We're a team of researchers and engineers from self-driving, drug discovery, and robotics - including Google DeepMind, Cruise, and Waymo. We're a Series A startup backed by Lachy Groom, Stefano Ermon, Jonathan Frankle, Kyle Vogt, and Nal Kalchbrenner.
