They don't though, they're hallucinated videos. They're feeding models tons and tons of 2D videos and hoping they figure out physics from them, instead of just using a game engine and having the LLM write something up that works 100% of the time.

On the flip side, the emergent properties that come from some of these wouldn’t be replicable by an engine. A moss covered rock realistically shedding moss as it rolls down a hill. Condensation aggregating into beads and rivulets on glass. An ant walking on a pitcher plant and being able to walk inside it and see bugs drowned from its previous meal. You’re missing the forest for the trees.
