Google launches Project Genie to help AI understand real-life spaces
Technology
Google earlier this year dropped Project Genie, a new AI that can turn simple images or text into detailed, interactive worlds.
Launched earlier this year, Genie's main goal is to help AI get better at understanding real-life spaces, so things like robot assistants shopping for groceries or self-driving cars finding their way could become a lot smoother.

Project Genie isn't alone; World Labs's Marble and JEPA are also working on smarter virtual environments.
