This was such a fun and rewarding project to work on. Amazing job by the team! The most exciting thing for me is that we were able to achieve this without using a single doggone action label, which believe me, was not easy!

I am really excited to reveal what @GoogleDeepMind 's Open Endedness Team has been up to 🚀. We introduce Genie 🧞, a foundation world model trained exclusively from Internet videos that can generate an endless variety of action-controllable 2D worlds given image prompts.

Happy to host @ashrewards of @GoogleDeepMind at @raais 2024! Ashley works on reinforcement learning and foundational world models. She was part of the team that created Gato, a multi-modal, multi-task, multi-embodiment agent that was able to perform a diverse range of tasks,

It has been a dream to work on Genie with such fantastic people, I’ve learned so much from all of them. We've also had a lot of fun, for example, using our model trained on platformers to convert random pictures of our pets into playable worlds 🤯🐶

I highly recommend this talk on generative video agent models for game creation. It is one of the best examples of the blending of video and games that @sama recently tweeted about, and which we should expect to grow in the future.

@nathanbenaich I'll mainly be discussing our recent work Genie and how it enables us to learn playable environments from videos alone 🧞
