Very excited to share Genie 4, our incredible interactive world model, bringing together real-time physics, reasoning, and audio! Simulations within simulations, makes you wonder just how deep the rabbit hole goes... I have a feeling we will be finding out soon enough...

It's been an absolute joy building and launching this product with such an incredible team.
We've been blown away by the warm reception so far, and we're eager to keep iterating based on your feedback.
If you've had a chance to try it, what's been your favorite feature so far? What would you like to see us build next? Go #dreambeans!
Dreambeans is one of our newer experiments in @GoogleLabs. It has a growing cult following.
It’s simple: a fixed number of “beans” brew every morning. They point you at the real world, with real people, doing things you care about together.
Give it a try!

Down to the last session here in SF. Luke Freiler is up to close on where product is headed in the AI era.
A lot of notes taken during Pavan Kumar, Brad Day and Rob Bridgman's sessions earlier.
Thanks to everyone that joined us and to the Autodesk Gallery team for hosting!

Project Genie 🤝 @GoogleMaps Street View
You can now take real U.S. places and transform them into new, interactive worlds. 🌍
Pavan Kumar retweeted
Imagine driving down one of the most picturesque highways on the Pacific Coast (Highway 1) in a race car… now I can use Project Genie, connected with Street View, to bring that to life in vivid detail!
At #GoogleIO, we announced that we’re bringing Google Street View into Project Genie, so you can create and explore imaginative, interactive worlds anchored in real places.
Available to eligible Google AI Ultra Subscribers globally.
Great collab from @jmbherbert, @jparkerholder, @poolio, @drivascos + many others from @GoogleDeepMind and @GoogleLabs.

From playing the games to designing the games in minutes. Just choose your characters, set the scene, and let Project Genie do the rest. The transformation is wild 🦒

I got to "play" a world model in real life.
The @GoogleDeepMind folks set up a crazy demo for Genie.
You select glowing orbs to represent your scene and character. It loads the world in the model, and you navigate with joysticks like a video game 🕹️

Have you explored Project Genie yet? 🌎 We just launched a huge set of updates! You can now simulate worlds grounded in @GoogleMaps Street View, manage your creations in a new library, and share them externally. Let's dive in:
1️⃣ Street View Grounding: You can now generate worlds starting from real places! Just tap the Maps pin to choose a location in the US and you can pick a style like "Desert Sands" or "Ocean World." Describe your character, and Genie ties your starting location to real-world imagery.
2️⃣ Library: You can now store and organize your generated worlds. Easily explore past creations or remix your favorites to iterate on your ideas.
3️⃣ External sharing: You can now share your generated worlds. Anyone can watch a video preview of your world, and Ultra subscribers can explore or remix them. Check out a shared world here: goo.gle/42j85pj
✨ And now, Project Genie is gradually rolling out to all eligible Google AI Ultra subscribers globally (18+). Jump in and start creating today!
