Google DeepMind is assembling a new team of artificial intelligence researchers to develop “world models” that can simulate physical environments. The initiative will be led by Tim Brooks, a former co-lead for OpenAI’s Sora project who joined DeepMind in October to work on Google’s video generation and world simulators.
Meta’s chief AI scientist Yann LeCun described world models this way during a speech at Hudson Forum earlier this year: “A world model is your mental model of how the world behaves…You can imagine a sequence of actions you might take, and your world model will allow you to predict what the effect of the sequence of action will be on the world.”
A Google AI product chief says he thinks that scaling test-time compute could be a direct path to reaching artificial superintelligence.
There's not enough human-generated data to keep AI models improving at the same rate. 2025 will put a new solution to the test.
Study finds Google's AI Overviews disrupt search results for publishers, appearing in 18% of publisher-related queries.
Google's groundbreaking white paper reveals how AI agents leverage advanced reasoning, real-time data access and autonomous decision-making.
The report suggests that Gemini might arrive on Wear OS through an update to the existing Assistant app. When that happens, though, is currently unclear. The process of bringing up the assistant will likely remain the same — by using the "Hey Google" wake word or by long pressing your wearable's side button.
