Jeff Bezos' New AI Venture Quietly Acquired an Agentic Computing Startup

Project Prometheus has raised over $6 billion in funding and hired over 100 employees, a handful of whom joined through its acquisition of General Agents, according to records and sources.

In early June, tech entrepreneur Vik Bajaj took over Saison, a two-Michelin star restaurant in San Francisco, for an off-the-record dinner to talk about AI with journalists and a handful of scientists. In attendance was Sherjil Ozair, a late addition who had previously held senior research roles at DeepMind and Tesla. The following day, Bajaj and Ozair were on their way to making a deal, public records show.
