World models are AI systems that accurately simulate physical reality. How objects move and collide, for example, or how light behaves, or liquid flows. Google DeepMind recently released the astonishing new Genie 3 model; Demis Hassabis calls world models a crucial part of anything we can call true AGI. OpenAI is rumoured to be building a rival. Yann LeCun — Meta's AI chief for years — has left the company to launch his own world model startup.

Google has introduced one of the most significant updates to Google Maps in more than a decade. The update brings two major features: Ask Maps, an AI-powered conversational assistant, and Immersive Navigation, a new 3D navigation system designed to make directions clearer and more intuitive. Together, these technologies aim to transform Google Maps from a simple navigation tool into a smarter travel and exploration platform powered by artificial intelligence.

A few months back Altera launched Project Sid (its name is a hat tip to Sid Meier, the creator of the iconic Civilisation video game). They poured 1,000 autonomous AI agents into a Minecraft world, and sat back to watch what unfolded.
Altera calls this world, ‘the first agent-based civilisation’. Yang and his colleagues watched as the agents learned to harness the natural resources around them, developed their own economy, and even evolved a culture and religion.

Prices will start from 1,899 yuan ($268.25) for the headset that will be powered by Alibaba's Qwen AI model and app. Unlike other headsets made by the likes of Meta, the Quark glasses look like regular eyewear, with a black plastic frame. Alibaba said the glasses would be deeply integrated with its apps, including Alipay and its shopping site Taobao, with wearers able to use them for tasks such as on-the-go translation and instant price recognition.

In 2024, Qatar Airways, a frequent winner of the World’s Best Airline award, released its AI “social media ambassador,” Sama (meaning “sky” in Arabic), at the travel conference IBT Berlin. At the start of 2025, Sama was brought to the public with the Instagram profile @SamaOnTheMove. The word “human” comes up more times than you would probably guess for a release about an AI product.
