Luma and Runway are pitching AI video tech to robotics and self-driving car makers.
The two startups, known for AI-generated video, are moving beyond Hollywood. Talks with unnamed robotics and self-driving companies are underway, according to The Information.
This pivot fits Luma’s push to build 3D AI world models starting in early 2024. The goal: AI that understands and interacts with the world around it. TechCrunch reported on this strategy earlier.
Runway is also eyeing video game companies as a future revenue source, per the same report.
TechCrunch reached out to both startups for further details. No official comments yet.
