Neural and computational evidence reveals that real-world size is a temporally late, semantically grounded, and hierarchically stable dimension of object representation in both human brains and ...

Robotics startup 1X Technologies has developed a new generative model that can make it much more efficient to train robotics systems in simulation. The model, which the company announced in a new blog ...

While large language models (LLMs) have mastered text (and other modalities to some extent), they lack the physical "common sense" to operate in dynamic, real-world environments. This has limited the ...

VLJ tracks meaning across video, outperforming CLIP in zero-shot tasks, so you get steadier captions and cleaner ...

In March, Google showed off its first Genie AI model. After training on thousands of hours of 2D run-and-jump video games, the model could generate halfway-passable interactive impressions of those ...

Over the last few months, many AI boosters have been increasingly interested in generative video models and their seeming ability to show at least limited emergent knowledge of the physical properties ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Here’s a test for infants: Show them a glass of water on a desk. Hide it behind a wooden board. Now move the board toward the glass. If ...
