Could Google’s Veo 3 be the start of playable world models?


Demis Hassabis, CEO of Google DeepMind, hinted Tuesday evening that Veo 3, Google’s latest video generating model, could potentially be used for video games.

Li came out of stealth last year with World Labs, a startup that has built its own AI system that generates video game-like, 3D scenes from a single image. That’s why it might make sense to see Google take a hybrid approach that leverages Veo and Genie in the future, should it pursue video game or playable world development.
