Everything you love about generative models — now powered by real physics!
Announcing the Genesis project — after a 24-month large-scale research collaboration involving over 20 research labs — a generative physics engine able to generate 4D dynamical worlds powered by a physics simulation platform designed for general-purpose robotics and physical AI applications.
Genesis's physics engine is developed in pure Python, while being 10-80x faster than existing GPU-accelerated stacks like Isaac Gym and MJX. It delivers a simulation speed ~430,000 faster than in real-time, and takes only 26 seconds to train a robotic locomotion policy transferrable to the real world on a single RTX4090 (see tutorial: https://t.co/bEkIlCKqdf).
The Genesis physics engine and simulation platform is fully open source at https://t.co/DhBv7NdyqH. We'll gradually roll out access to our generative framework in the near future.
Genesis implements a unified simulation framework all from scratch, integrating a wide spectrum of state-of-the-art physics solvers, allowing simulation of the whole physical world in a virtual realm with the highest realism.
We aim to build a universal data engine that leverages an upper-level generative framework to autonomously create physical worlds, together with various modes of data, including environments, camera motions, robotic task proposals, reward functions, robot policies, character motions, fully interactive 3D scenes, open-world articulated assets, and more, aiming towards fully automated data generation for robotics, physical AI and other applications.

Combatting climate change means reducing global waste. In this article, I discuss how AI can help discover solutions for sustainability by repurposing old/broken items. #AIforSustainability#ReduceWaste#ClimateChange https://t.co/txhFjUILbT via @lifewiretech
Our VP of Innovation @jmaymar recently spoke with @NTDNews about AI-generated images that look incredibly real.
He suggested that we will need AI tools to, "fact-check" images, and determine if they're generated or not.

Great conversation with @natrubio__ about an interesting Microsoft patent that is going to make AI almost frictionless: https://t.co/1fmale9njL #innovation#AI#AR#VR
"Like everything, if the art is viewed as valuable, people will try to steal it." -@jmaymar, in an interview with @lifewiretech, spoke about how @nvidia is launching software that helps AI models comply with copyright laws.

We're excited to reveal that we've integrated conversational AI into our VR platform. Enabling users to communicate with virtual characters in a conversational manner is a significant development. #AI#VR#metaverse#GPT3#ChatGPT $VRAR
