Boltzbit

Boltzbit is an AI research company headquartered in London, developing General Learning Intelligence (GLI). Founded in 2020 by former Google AI researcher Dr Yichuan Zhang and former Microsoft AI researcher Dr Jinli Hu, the company builds on academic research into Boltzmann machines to develop generative models capable of live learning in production. Its models are designed to address the limitations of traditional transformer pre-training or post-training by continuously adapting to new data and environments at inference time. Boltzbit’s technology is already in production, powering applications across financial services, data, and high-growth technology sectors. The company is part of a new wave of research focused on moving beyond static, model-centric AI toward adaptive, context-driven intelligence, an approach referred to as AGI 2.0.
