Not to be confused with “Verbs,” though the AI action is hot.
Vurvey Labs is pioneering a significant shift in artificial intelligence by combining LLMs with continuous human insights. Their newly launched “Vurbs” represent AI agents that evolve through ongoing interaction with real people, addressing a fundamental limitation of traditional LLMs which remain static after training. This approach potentially solves a critical challenge in AI development by creating more dynamic, authentic AI personalities that can better model human behavior and provide enterprises with continuously refreshed consumer insights.
The big picture: Vurvey Labs has launched “Vurbs,” AI agents that evolve through continuous human interaction rather than remaining static like traditional LLMs.
- The company’s approach integrates insights from over 3 million global consumers to create AI agents that learn and adapt in real-time.
- This represents a fundamental shift from conventional LLM design, focusing on creating AI that’s not just inspired by people but directly connected to them.
Key innovation: The company’s proprietary “People Model™” introduces a new AI paradigm called the Large Persona Model that generates evolving AI personalities.
- The technology creates AI agents using identifiable personality traits, demographics, psychographics, and custom characteristics.
- According to Dr. Ben Vaughan, Head of AI Research, this introduces variance crucial for modeling consumer behaviors beyond existing training data limitations.
Product ecosystem: Vurvey’s platform includes several related technologies designed to transform static consumer profiles into interactive AI agents.
- Vurb™ Personas convert traditional consumer profiles into conversational agents for real-time insights.
- Vurb™ Assistants provide networks of expert AI agents to scale knowledge creation and innovation.
- Vurb™ Products offer AI personalities that can authentically represent brands and commerce opportunities.
Enterprise applications: The technology has already been implemented by major consumer goods companies for continuous consumer collaboration.
- Kathy Rutherford from Kenvue reports that their Skin Health brands now have 24/7 consumer collaboration through Vurvey agents.
- The system democratizes consumer insights across innovation teams by providing always-available AI agents informed by real human perspectives.
Why this matters: Vurvey’s approach addresses a fundamental limitation in current LLMs by creating AI that adapts through ongoing human interaction rather than remaining frozen after initial training.
- This could dramatically improve AI’s ability to understand evolving consumer preferences and behaviors.
- CEO Chad Reynolds emphasizes these agents aren’t just conversational but “actionable,” potentially bringing everyday objects and products to life through dynamic, collaborative AI.

DOE fusion roadmap targets 2030s commercial deployment as AI drives $9B investment
The Department of Energy has released a new roadmap targeting commercial-scale fusion power deployment by the mid-2030s, though the plan lacks specific funding commitments and relies on scientific breakthroughs that have eluded researchers for decades. The strategy emphasizes public-private partnerships and positions AI as both a research tool and motivation for developing fusion energy to meet data centers' growing electricity demands. The big picture: The DOE's roadmap aims to "deliver the public infrastructure that supports the fusion private sector scale up in the 2030s," but acknowledges it cannot commit to specific funding levels and remains subject to Congressional appropriations.
