Jeff Bezos sat down with CNBC on June 11, 2026, to make the case that his next act could become even bigger than Amazon. As co-founder and co-CEO of Prometheus, Bezos is pitching a thesis that tries to answer one question: What actually makes societies rich?

The new startup Prometheus seeks to build an “artificial general engineer” that can design and manufacture complex physical products.

In a CNBC interview, Jeff Bezos offered the most detailed public description yet of Project Prometheus, calling the secretive startup an "artificial general engineer" building next-generation design tools for physical objects.

The Amazon founder is serving as the co-CEO of Prometheus, a physical AI startup that just closed a $12 billion round.

Prometheus founders Jeff Bezos and Vik Bajaj argue that AI-driven advances in engineering and manufacturing could spur a new wave of innovation, creating industries, products and jobs that do not exist today.

TSG Invest, a multi-entity financial services firm providing accredited investors with research and access to pre-IPO opportunities, today announced new research coverage of Project Prometheus, the physical-artificial-intelligence company co-founded by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.
