It sounds cool that Genie 3 can make whole worlds you can explore, but I wonder how soon regular people will actually get to try it out?

These guys are working on the same thing and have a real demo you can play:

Wow, a few years ago, if you've shown me this and Genie 3, I'd assume there were at least 10 years of development between them. This looks worse than Doom.

The rate of change is insane these days. I remember Sora launching and thinking "wow" and within weeks it looked like hot garbage.

I'm pretty sure that got debunked as a handful of overfitted examples that fall apart as soon as you leave the area that was 3D recorded. Google's new tech is on another level entirely.

Hey, this looks really cool! I'm wondering - what happens if you feed it something totally different like a Van Gogh painting or anime character? Have you tested any non-photo inputs?

It works with any style of character! Check out the embedded videos in our tech report. Peachy and the toilet are my favorite. https://lemonslice.com/live/technical-report

Really curious to learn more about TacOS. How does it manage running multiple programs safely at the same time?
