Generalist, a robotics startup building a single AI model intended to control many different robots, has raised roughly $200 million more in an extension led by 8VC, valuing it at about $3 billion. The round now totals $600 million following a June Series B led by Radical Ventures. The company and 8VC declined to comment, and the valuation comes from people familiar with the deal rather than an official announcement.
