Fidji Simo backs Warp Sciences, which pairs AI and robotics for drug discovery

AIFidji Simo says she invested in Warp Sciences, which combines AI and robotics to create a feedback loop for scientific discovery. The quoted post from Kevin Weil introduces Warp as a new company applying AI and robotics to develop medicines faster and reports a $215M Series A led by Lightspeed.

AIWhy it matters.

The post shows a funder's view that AI needs physical testing loops, with the $215M round as concrete evidence of that thesis in drug discovery.

For intelligence to keep improving, we need to build the physical infrastructure that allows AI to test its ideas in the real world, learn from the results, and iterate. That’s why I invested in Warp. They’re combining AI and robotics to create that feedback loop for scientific discovery.

💥 Introducing Warp Sciences, a new company applying AI and robotics to help the world develop new medicines faster. We’ve raised a $215M Series A led by @lightspeedvp to bring frontier AI out of the browser and into the lab, and build scientific capacity here in America. I co-founded Warp with my long-time friend @dpatil, FAIR co-founder @manohar_paluri, and drug hunter Sol Reisberg. The early team is full of incredible people like @bkspears9, who helped achieve Q>1 fusion at LLNL.
