World Labs (Fei-Fei Li's startup) released RTFM, a generative interactive world model that turns a single image into real-time video for exploring 3D worlds. Trained on large-scale video data to predict next frames, it achieves unbounded persistence via spatial memory; a live demo is available.

A team member also demoed Atlas: starting from a photo of a kids' playroom, Atlas-turbo prompted an entirely new outdoor area into existence — breaking past the small, enclosed spaces of the original RTFM demo.
