WORLD MODELS

Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

The AI industry is turning its focus to world models, models that predict the next state observations. These models aim to understand the causal laws of an environment like a video game, codebase, or market. Companies have been working on similar models for decades under different names, but the bottleneck to the next step is now almost able to be overcome. The next AI era will require learning from the world directly through execution and outcomes.
