Recently, Tim Brooks, the research head of OpenAI's Sora video generation system, announced on social media that he will be joining Google DeepMind to continue his work on video generation and the world simulator. Brooks expressed his excitement about collaborating with a talented team like DeepMind and thanked OpenAI for the wonderful two years he spent there, especially for the achievements made in the Sora project.

Scientists from Harvard University and Google's DeepMind AI Lab have collaborated to create a virtual AI mouse, which is not only a technological breakthrough but may also open up a new field called "Virtual Neuroscience". The significance of this research lies in its potential to not only help us understand how the brain controls complex body movements but also to have a profound impact on neuroscience and robotics.

Google has released the base world model Genie, which features 11 billion parameters and can generate interactive virtual environments. Genie trains without action labels, autonomously identifying different action features and patterns in videos. Genie can learn fine-grained control and simulate a variety of potential actions. It generates video in a cartoon style and can simulate robotic movements and deformable objects, leaning more towards animated graphics compared to Sora.
