This is an excellent example Brand expansion. Whether through product depth or diversification successful brands all have to do this. What's especially impressive to me is that Mr. Altman has seen that by expanding the incubator platform, to technologies that previously were not included as primary entrepreneurial drivers (AI / Urban), Mr. Altman has opened the doors to an incredible amount of work that has already been done at research institutions world wide and is ready for investor grooming. It will be interesting to see who responds, and what they can bring to the table. My guess is that it won't be the bounty that YC has seen in software, but that there will be some really interesting winners that fit the scale / mvp problem inherent in YC's process just right. Hopefully the other incubators will follow suit. The world needs more than disruptive / labor saving software. The world needs more and better technology all around.
