Google DeepMind/Genie world models

Google opened Project Genie, an experimental prototype built on the Genie 3 world model, to Google AI Ultra subscribers in the US aged 18+. Users can create, explore and remix interactive worlds from text and images, with the environment generated in real time as they move. The prototype generates worlds up to 60 seconds with some acknowledged limitations on prompt adherence and character control.

• World Sketching: text prompts and images establish environments; users define character movement style (walking, flying, driving)
• World Exploration: Genie generates path ahead in real time based on user actions; World Remixing allows modification of existing worlds
• Generates worlds up to 60 seconds; developers acknowledged limitations including inconsistent prompt adherence and occasional character control issues
