Runway called out for announcing Solaris and GWM Worlds 2 without actual availability
altryne · x · 2026-09-11
Runway shared its research direction in real-time video generation, arguing instant generation is the future, and referenced last week's Solaris and GWM Worlds 2 announcements plus its approach to training agents in digital and physical worlds. But podcaster altryne called the company out: neither product was actually available to try. The exchange highlights the gap between "announcing" and "releasing" in AI video.
