Odyssey’s new AI model streams 3D interactive worlds
Available on the Web in an “Early Demo,” The Model Generates and Streams Video Frames Every 40 Milliseconds
Odyssey, a startup founded by self-driving pioneers Oliver Cameron and Jeff Hawke, has developed an AI model that lets users “interact” with streaming video. Available on the web in an “early demo,” the model generates and streams video frames every 40 milliseconds. Via basic controls, viewers can explore areas within a video, similar to a 3D-rendered video game.
“Given the current state of the world, an incoming action, and a history of states and actions, the model attempts to predict the next state of the world,” explains Odyssey in a blog post. “Powering this is a new world model, demonstrating capabilities like generating pixels that feel realistic, maintaining spatial consistency, learning actions from video, and outputting coherent video streams for 5 minutes or more.”
