I have to admit, when I saw them generating flakey two second clips of 2D platform games. I did not expect this level of performance just two years later! Wow!. Well done Genie Team.
What if you could not only watch a generated video, but explore it too? 🌐. Genie 3 is our groundbreaking world model that creates interactive, playable environments from a single text prompt. From photorealistic landscapes to fantasy realms, the possibilities are endless. 🧵

Thanks!. Of course, when I wrote this blog comment I had also realised that there was a winning move based on this heretical belief: start an AGI company long before most people realise it's coming. Hence, @GoogleDeepMind.
Shane Legg has been expecting AGI to happen in the mid to late 2020's or early 2030's since at least 2008 or so. Sadly, he stopped publishing predictions, because he correctly expected people wouldn't reward

I've always believed that AGI has the power to revolutionise industries and accelerate science, and that harnessing this power responsibly will be essential. This report explains, in some detail, our current thinking on AGI safety and security.
AGI could revolutionize many fields - from healthcare to education - but it's crucial that it’s developed responsibly. Today, we’re sharing how we’re thinking about safety and security on the path to AGI. →
