StefanoErmon · x · 2026-07-15
Stefano Ermon stated that a "real-time experience" based on Mercury 2 has arrived.
According to the quotes, Mercury 2 is described as a flagship diffusion LLM that gives AI characters in Minecraft the real-time reactive ability to "hear, decide, and act." The author emphasizes that this capability bridges the "reflex speed" gap for AI in games, rather than just providing higher raw intelligence.
