Magic's AI company, focused on building safe general artificial intelligence (AGI), aims to accelerate human progress in solving the world's most important problems.Magic's core philosophy is to improve models and solve alignment problems more reliably than humans by automating AI research and code generation. This approach combines cutting-edge scale pre-training, domain-specific reinforcement learning, ultra-long contexts, and inference-time computation to achieve its goals.
Magic currently has 8,000 H100 graphics cards and has raised $515 million from investors including Nat Friedman, Daniel Gross, CapitalG, Elad Gil, Sequoia, Jane Street, and Eric Schmidt. The company consists of a small group of engineers and researchers working on a series of fundamental research questions that directly contribute to the realization of AGI.
