Do people play video games to look at pretty scenery? No most people are testing skills in video games and this will not test skill for a while
They do both. Nobody played Cyberpunk 2077 for the riveting gameplay. Actually that game felt a lot like these videos, because often you would turn around and then look back and the game had deleted the NPCs and generated new ones, etc.
Consistency over multiple minutes and it runs in real time at 720p? I did not expect world models to be this good yet. > Genie 3’s consistency is an emergent capability So this just happened from scaling the model, rather than being a consequence of deliberate architecture changes? Edit: here is some commentary on limitations from someone who tried it: https://x.com/tejasdkulkarni/status/1952737669894574264 > - Physi…
> Future robots may learn in their dreams... So prescient. I definitely think this will be a thing in the near future ~12-18 months time horizon
I can see this being incredible for history lessons and history school lectures
It's going to replace video games.

Lemme start by saying this is objectively amazing. But I just really wouldn't call it a breakthrough. We had one breakthrough a couple of years ago with GPT-3, where we found that neural networks / transformers + scale does wonders. Everything else has been a smooth continuous improvement. Compare today's announcement to Genie-2[1] release less than 1 year ago. The speed is insane, but not surprising if you put in co…
Wasn't the model winning gold in IMO result of a breakthrough? I doubt an stochastic parrot can solve math at IMO level...
First AI thing that’s made me feel a bit of derealization… …and this is the worst the capabilities will ever be. Watching the video created a glimmer of doubt that perhaps my current reality is a future version of myself, or some other consciousness, that’s living its life in an AI hallucinated environment.
Due to this physical limitation, what you 'see' in front of you, widely accepted as ground truth reality, cannot possibly real, its a hallucination produced by your brain.
Your brain, compared to the sensory richness of reality you experience around you, has very limited direct inputs from the outside world, it must construct a rich internal model based on this.
It's very weird (at least to me), that the boundary between reality and assumption (basically educated guessing) is very arbitrary, and definitely only exists in our heads.
Advances in generative AI are making me progressively more and more depressive. Creativity is taken from us at exponential rate. And I don't buy argument from people who are saying they are excited to live in this age. I can get that if that technology stopped at current state and remained to be just tools for our creative endeavours, but it doesn't seem to be an endgame here. Instead it aims to be a complete replace…
> Looks like a pretty decent explanation of Fermi paradox. It's not. We will be replaced, but the AI will carry on.
a lot of these comments border on cult thinking. it's a fucking text to 3D image model, not R Daneel Olivaw, calm down

So this just happened from scaling the model Unbelievable. How is this not a miracle? So we're just stumbling onto breakthroughs?
Is it actually unbelievable? It's basically what every major AI lab head is saying from the start. It's the peanut gallery that keeps saying they are lying to get funding.
Not to detract from what has been done here in any way, but it all seems entirely consistent with the types of progress we have seen.
It's also no surprise to me that it's from Google, who I suspect is better situated than any of its AI competitors, even if it is sometimes slow to show progress publicly.
