New AI model can build entire 3D worlds from text and images

AI-generated and checked against the sources listed below.

The company World Labs has launched Atlas, an AI model that can create and simulate coherent 3D worlds from text, images or video. For now it is mostly relevant for developers and the 3D industry, not for ordinary users.

World Labs has released a new model called Atlas. It can generate, recreate and simulate coherent 3D worlds from whatever text, images or video you feed it.

Think of it as asking an AI to build an entire virtual room or landscape you can move around in, instead of just getting a flat image.

For most individuals and businesses, nothing changes tomorrow. This is primarily interesting for people working with games, simulation, robotics or 3D design.

If you use AI in your daily life for text, images or planning, you can relax this time. There is nothing to react to right now.

If, on the other hand, you work with 3D content or simulations professionally, it is worth watching how Atlas develops over the coming months.
