Google DeepMind's Genie 2 Can Create Interactive 3D Environments
Imagine computer programs that can whip up virtual worlds on the fly — that's what world models, a fascinating offshoot of machine learning, do. There's been quite a buzz around these AI wonders lately. Jumping on the trend, Google DeepMind rolled out Genie 2 this Wednesday. Unlike its predecessor that dabbled only in flat, 2D landscapes, Genie 2 dives into the realm of 3D and keeps these virtual realms going for much longer periods.
