AGI is the overarching goal, but improved chatbots, AI-generated media, and potentially robots are also a part of the equation.

DeepMind’s Genie puts the company at the forefront of world model development, but it faces a number of competitors in this area, such as World Labs Technologies Inc ., a startup created by the renowned AI researcher Fei-Fei Lee, as well Odyssey Systems Inc. and Decart.AI Inc.

Google DeepMind is developing AI models to simulate real-world environments, advancing towards artificial general intelligence (AGI).

Google is forming a new team to build AI models capable of accurately simulating the physical world. The effort will be led by Tim Brooks, a former co-lead on OpenAI's video generator, Sora. Brooks joined Google's AI research lab,

Brooks, who joined DeepMind after fleeing from OpenAI back in October, and his team have “ambitious plans to make massive generative models that simulate the world.” According to the role descriptions,

Google is establishing a team to build AI that can simulate the physical world, led by one of the former co-leads on OpenAI's Sora model.

In order to develop AI models that can replicate the real world, Google is assembling a new team. Under Tim Brooks’ leadership, Google is assembling a new artificial intelligence team within its DeepMind division to develop models that can replicate the real world.
