Pathway announces AI reasoning breakthrough

Adrian Kosowski, PhD, is a prodigy mathematician, physicist, and computer scientist hailing from Poland's coastal city of Gdańsk. Born in 1986 - he is widely considered a genius and a remarkable figure in the world of science. As he recently announced, his Polish Pathway startup's team has developed a revolutionary solution to the "generalization over time" problem, one of main global issues halting further AI development.

"The relationship between computing systems and the brain has served as motivation for pioneering theoreticians since John von Neumann and Alan Turing. Uniform, scale-free biological networks, such as the brain, have powerful properties, including generalizing over time, which is the main barrier for Machine Learning on the path to Universal Reasoning Models"

- Polish scientists' team announced on Cornell University's website, unveiling their new AI paradigm "Dragon Hatchling" which breaks this barrier.

"Our son ran into the room where the project was running, he looked at the screen, and shouted 'Mommy, it has a brain!' We came to see what was going on - and onscreen we saw a structure that hadn't been set by us, but had grown on its own, actually resembling a brain scan. We saw its emergence for the first time, and we already knew what we had created..."

- Adrian Kosowski recalled, talking about the Pathway's invention with Polish science popularizer Maciej Kawecki, PhD, on the latter's Youtube channel.

"They have solved the most important problem of modern AI - something every major laboratory on Earth has been working on. This clearly proves that Poles are on the forefront of the global artificial intelligence revolution. And to my great satisfaction, this breakthrough was not created by Big Tech for billions of dollars - but it resulted from actions of an intellectual genius"

- Maciej Kawecki emphasized.

along Sutton's lines @pathway_com new post-transformer architecture, Baby Dragon Hatchling (BDH) could pave the way for autonomous AI.

Generalization over time is the ability to reason, learn from experience, and formulate subjectivity and predictions based on new information. This is a fundamental property of human intelligence.

The Polish model creates a structure similar to the neural networks in the brain. It emerges spontaneously during training and resembles the behavior of the neocortex, the outer layer of the brain found only in mammals, which is responsible for higher-order cognitive functions such as perception, memory, learning, and decision-making.

Pathway is a US-based Polish startup, operating out of Silicon Valley. It focuses on building LiveAI systems that think and learn in real-time as humans do. Underpinned by the fastest data processing engine on the market and an AI framework, Pathway lays the foundations for an organization’s full and evolving AI transformation journey without the need for re-platforming. The startup's clients include the likes of NATO, La Poste and Formula 1 racing teams.

Headed by co-founder & CEO, Zuzanna Stamirowska, Pathway’s leading AI experts include co-founder & CTO Jan Chorowski, CSO Adrian Kosowski, Victor Szczerba and Claire Nouet. Pathway is backed by Business Angel Lukasz Kaiser, who co-authored Transformers (the “T” in ChatGPT) and is the key researcher behind GPT o1 from OpenAI.
