Unlike LLMs which made it into the public view, I have a hard time seeing these world simulation models doing the same
I'm not sure how to imagine their use in education or gaming, but it's clear that they have a real potential for being used in military programs
It's nightmarish to think these could be trained on shooting game footage and thrown into real life scenarios in some form or another
World models are there for planning capabilities and data efficiency in training, they are an old and general idea (model based RL). You just see them in video games etc because these are easier cases.
So much of tech progress links back to gaming, it’s astounding
gaming is all about simulation after all
Yeah, it's obvious that this will be used to pilot drones.
