Google DeepMind announced Monday (Jan. 6) that it is creating a new team to work on “massive” generative models that would “simulate the world.” These models represent the next stage of advancement in artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities in decision-making, planning and creativity.
World models are computational frameworks that help AI systems understand and simulate the real or virtual world. They are key to helping teach AI systems to navigate an environment and have widespread applications in robotics, gaming and autonomous systems.
For example, autonomous vehicles use these world models to simulate traffic and road conditions. They can also train generalist AI robots in different environments. A common problem is the lack of rich, diverse and safe training environments for so-called...
