There are many things humankind does not know, and to the unfortunate ears, artificial intelligence is one of them.

We live in an unreasonable time. We’re experiencing the scaling of architectures that show emerging capabilities, models that are beginning to solve hard problems, and applications of this intelligence applied to different fields.

Yet, we have yet to uncover the big blanket on top of intelligence, and thus we propose a few elementary questions:

• What does it mean to reason?
• What does it mean to perceive?
• What does it mean to have memory?
• What does it mean to act?

Assumption is the mother of all mistakes. To assume something correct oftentimes does more damage than to assume something was wrong. This is what it feels like to be within the realm of theoretics in artificial intelligence as of today.

To truly bring about intelligence to revolutionize this world, we need to remove what we consider true and deal with the beasts living within the dark box.

By understanding what it means to reason, perceive, remember, and act, 9D Labs will advance research wherever those questions matter most—in every field that stands to gain.

We’re a frontier AI lab focused on understanding what it means to be intelligent from first principles, and how to truly bring it upon this world.
