Google integrated its Project Genie AI world model with Street View to create interactive 3D environments. Announced at Google I/O, the feature generates explorable simulations based on real-world U.S. locations. Users can apply custom creative styles and scenarios to these digital twins.
The technology primarily aims to train embodied AI agents and robots in safe, virtual settings. These simulations provide diverse training scenarios grounded in physical reality. This development serves as a critical step for advancing autonomous systems like Waymo.
Google is currently rolling out the feature to Google AI Ultra subscribers.
