Today we sharing Atlas, our new multimodal world model.

One reason this model is so special to me is that it combines two core visual intelligence tasks I have worked on for over a decade: generation and reconstruction

Introducing Atlas:

The world's first multimodal world model that generates image and video frames with pixel-perfect camera control and reconstructs them in 3D.

Model the world, move the camera, and simulate space & time.

We've released a demo of real-time world generation powered by our new Atlas model!

This is a spiritual successor to our RTFM demo from last year. It's a vision for the future of interactive media might look like, with frames streamed directly from a powerful generative model

Two months ago, we introduced Atlas, an autoregressive world model with pixel-perfect camera control.

Today, we're releasing Frameboy, a demo allowing you to explore worlds in real-time with a highly optimized version of Atlas, streaming from cloud GPUs at up to 15 fps.

World Labs is joining @AMD!

Over the past few years our incredible team has pushed the boundaries of spatial intelligence through models like Marble, RTFM, and now Atlas.

By partnering with AMD we will train bigger and better models than ever before, and build out an ecosystem of open models. I can’t wait to get started!

We are excited to announce that World Labs is joining @AMD.

The research and technical breakthroughs we have achieved since our founding in 2024 have given us a clear vision for AI’s potential to solve problems in the spatial and physical world.

Accelerating the future of spatial and physical intelligence requires scaling our efforts, scaling our reach, and getting closer to the hardware.

Reconstructing 3D scenes with this level of quality and fidelity used to take hundreds of images - Atlas reduces this by an order of magnitude

One of my favorites: Sparse reconstruction powered by Atlas.
The full scene was reconstructed from only 19 photos I took with my phone.

Wow, I'm honored and humbled that our 2016 perceptual losses paper with @AlexAlahi and @drfeifei was recognized with a Test of Time Award by @eccvconf!

It blows my mind that this is still a core ingredient in many modern pipelines, including the VAEs used in diffusion models
