Kyle Kosic joins Project Prometheus to focus on AI infrastructure
Kyle Kosic, who helped launch Elon Musk's xAI and worked on its massive Colossus supercomputer, is now joining Jeff Bezos and Vikram Bajaj's new AI startup, Project Prometheus.
Kosic brings experience from OpenAI and an M.S. in computer science from Georgia Tech with a specialization in machine learning, and he is expected to focus on AI infrastructure at Prometheus.
Prometheus aims to build industrial AI
Launched in November 2025, Prometheus wants to create powerful AI for industries like manufacturing, aerospace, computing, and cars.
The team has been busy recruiting top talent from places like Meta, OpenAI, and Google DeepMind, especially people who know how to build big tech systems.
Backed by more than $6.2 billion as of November 2025, with Bezos reportedly seeking as much as $100 billion for an AI manufacturing fund that could also finance Prometheus, this is one of the most ambitious AI startups around right now.
