Google's Genie 4 AI runs DOOM in real-time simulation

Google's new AI model, Genie 4, has demonstrated its capability by running the classic video game DOOM in real-time. This advanced AI can simulate complex environments, as illustrated by a scenario where an entire office, including computers and walls, is rendered as the game DOOM. The AI's ability extends to generating interactive elements within these simulations, such as a demonic coworker wielding a chaingun. AI

IMPACT Demonstrates advanced real-time simulation capabilities, potentially impacting game development and virtual environment creation.
