A New Era for Scientific Research with Mirendil
Mirendil, a recently established startup by former researchers from Anthropic, is poised to transform scientific research through artificial intelligence. The founders, Behnam Neyshabur, CEO, and Harsh Mehta, CTO, aim to apply AI in crucial fields such as biology and materials science.
After leaving Anthropic in December, Neyshabur and Mehta are in talks to raise $175 million, which would value their company at $1 billion, according to The Information. Andreessen Horowitz and Kleiner Perkins are reportedly in the running to co-lead this funding round, although details have not yet been finalized.
Experienced Founders
Behnam Neyshabur, who led an AI scientific reasoning team at Anthropic, also has significant experience at Google DeepMind. Harsh Mehta, on the other hand, was a Senior Research Scientist at Anthropic. The founding team also includes Shayan Salehian, formerly of xAI, and Tara Rezaei, a former intern at OpenAI.
A Growing Trend of "Neo-Labs"
Mirendil is part of a growing trend of "neo-labs," these AI startups founded by researchers who have left major companies. These startups often focus on specific niches, such as office productivity, or explore new approaches to address the limitations of current AI systems, particularly through continuous learning.
