Simulate real-world places with Project Genie and Street View
Google DeepMind 2 months ago
Google has connected its Genie world-generation model with Street View imagery, allowing users to create interactive virtual environments anchored in real-world locations. The capability launches today for Google AI Ultra subscribers at $200 per month, initially covering places across the U.S. with plans to expand later. Users can now generate imaginative scenes based on actual locations—such as exploring the Golden Gate Bridge underwater or the Fort Worth Stockyards in the 1920s—by selecting a real place and creative style before describing their character.
