Last week I said goodbye to @Cruise after 2.5 awesome years.
From co-founding @Voyage to building the @Cruise Origin—a new type of car with no steering wheel or pedals—has been life-changing.
What’s next? Not sharing just yet, but I’m working on something new.
Our belief at @odysseyml is that video models don’t go far enough.
What if a model could dream video in real-time, that's playable & personalized to the viewer, with dials to make it as fun, zen, or epic as you want?
That’s what we’re building, and here’s what V1 looks like! ❤️
Today we’re excited to share a peek at our next-gen model. Hope you like it 🥹
Imagine a video model you can play like a game, all in real-time. That’s what we’re building.
We call it interactive video, and there's no game engine in sight, just a model’s imagination.
The io Products, Inc. deal has officially closed and we’re thrilled to welcome the team to OpenAI.
Jony Ive & LoveFrom remain independent. They’ll have deep design & creative responsibilities across OpenAI.

Introducing interactive video from @odysseyml—video you can watch and interact with, imagined by AI in real-time.
Give it a try for free today on (almost) any device, and let us know what you think. We think it's pretty cool!
NEWS: OpenAI to buy Jony Ive's independent startup called io in a $6.5 billion deal — Ive will assume creative responsibilties across OpenAI and io to develop a new generation of AI hardware devices

Big @odysseyml news!
We’re unveiling Explorer, a generative world model. Explorer transforms text or an image into a realized, detailed 3D world.
I'm also incredibly excited that @edcatmull, the legendary Pixar founder, is joining our board & investing.

The next frontier for visual generative models is to learn from the physical world. We've been pioneering exactly this at @odysseyml.
We're building a vast dataset of real-world places, all captured in incredibly high-fidelity 3D with a custom hardware device.

I'm excited to share @odysseyml, my new thing! 🍿
We're building Hollywood-grade visual AI, where beautiful scenery, characters, lighting, and motion can be both generated and directed.
Our mission is to deliver a better way to create movies, TV shows, and video games.
I’m building something new! ✨
Last year, I founded my next thing with @jeffrey_hawke & an incredible team. Progress has been crazy.
Can’t wait to share more. Until then we’re growing our team. If you’re fascinated by the intersection of AI & computer graphics, please DM me!
@mondalan@Cruise@voyage Thanks, @mondalan - Very glad that you joined @voyage so early! You had a huge impact, really enjoyed our 6+ years of working together!

@olivercameron@Cruise Such a pleasure working together for nearly a decade! So many great memories in this thread! I can't wait to see what you build next!
I recently left @Cruise after 2 amazing years.
In that time, we launched & scaled cars with no driver to tens of thousands of happy customers. I'm super proud to have worked at such a special place.
What's next after 7 years in self-driving cars & AI, and what did I learn? 👇
I can’t count the times I’ve been told that AVs will *never* be able to handle certain situations.
How about taking a passenger through North Beach on St. Patrick’s day?
Absolutely wild. Thanks to this driverless @Cruise AV (named Twin Peaks) for the clip.
