This is amazing! I think the AI will completely replace the way we create and consume media currently. A well written story, with an amazing graphics generation AI can be both interactive and surprising every time you watch it again.

Wait till the bills arrive.

it’s super cool. I keep thinking it kind of feels like dream logic. It looks amazing at first but I’m not sure I’d want to stay in a world like that for too long. I actually like when things have limits. When the world pushes back a bit and gives you rules to work with.

Doesn't it have rules? I couldn't move past a certain point and hitting a wall made you teleport. Maybe I was just rationalizing random events, though.

This seems like a staggeringly inefficient way to develop what is essentially a FPS engine.

Only at first glance. It can easily render things that would be very hard to implement in an FPS engine.

What AI can dream up in milliseconds could take hundreds of human hours to encode using traditional tech (meshes, shaders, ray tracing, animation, logic scripts, etc.), and it still wouldn't look as natural and smooth as AI renderings — I refer to the latest developments in video synthesis like Google's Veo 3. Imagine it as a game engine running in real time.

Well, that felt like entering a dream on my phone. Fuzzy virtual environments generated by "a mind" based on its memory of real environments... I wonder if it'd break our brains more if the environment changes as the viewpoint changes, but doesn't change back (e.g. if there's a horse, you pan left, pan back right, and the horse is now a tiger).

Our minds are used to that: dreams
