This Technology Scares OpenAI (Here's Why)
Jeff Hawke, CTO at Odyssey, provides a deep dive into the emerging field of "world models"—AI systems that generate continuous, interactive simulations. He draws parallels to the "GPT-2 era" of LLMs, outlining the current state, core research challenges like coherence and control, and the immense potential for applications in gaming, robotics, and content creation. Hawke also clarifies the confusing terminology, distinguishing canonical world models from spatial intelligence and generative video models like Sora.
