  Google DeepMind recently introduced Genie, an artificial intelligence (AI) model that can create interactive video games from just a prompt or image. This development allows new possibilities for game design and interaction. What makes this model so unique is the fact that it was trained on 200,000 hours of unsupervised public internet gaming videos. Genie can create video games without any coding, which makes it targeted towards making development more accessible. Impressively, the AI can identify the main character in these titles. This allows users to control that character in the new environments. This Google AI model can generate games at one frame per second (FPS) for a more retro gaming experience. However, it is interesting to consider the possibility of higher frame rate development in the future. The technology behind Genie involves a Latent Action Model, Video Tokenizer, and Dynamics Model. These components work together to understand and predict the dynamics of video ...
