Warum es wichtig ist
Artificial intelligence has advanced in generating words, images, and videos, and is now focusing on "world models" to simulate changes in the physical or digital world over time.
Artificial intelligence has spent years learning to generate words, images and videos. Now, the industry’s attention is shifting towards “world models” – AI systems designed to simulate how the physical or digital world changes over time.
While the term was originally associated with physics simulations and robotics, a growing number of Chinese companies are applying the concept more broadly. The technology remains in its infancy, with little consensus on what a world model should ultimately look like.
Here’s what you need to know about the next frontier of AI.
