New milestone: we trained a robot foundation model on a world model backbone, and enabled zero-shot, open-world prompting capability for new verbs, nouns, and environments. If the world model can “”dream”” the right future in pixels, then the robot can execute well in motors. We”” https://x.com/DrJimFan/status/2019112603637920237

Much debate over Genie vs 3D engines. You can have both – the control of 3D scene graphs + the creativity of generative ai. Wrote this in 2024 breaking down the vision. The models are almost there. Now just imagine if Unreal / Unity productized this.”” https://x.com/bilawalsidhu/status/2018119240612536587
One of the wildest emergent capabilities of Genie 3 is that maps actually work. As I walk around the forest, the GPS display updates its heading in real time. Remember. There is no game engine here.
