GamesBeat reports: “Inworld AI has raised new funding from Lightspeed Venture Partners, bringing the valuation of the maker of an AI-based character engine for games to over $500 million. That valuation makes Inworld into a frontrunner when it comes to AI and games. The round includes additional investments from Stanford University, Samsung Next, and new and existing strategic investors such as Microsoft’s M12 fund, First Spark Ventures cofounded by Eric Schmidt, and LG Technology Ventures.”
