He built his reputation by betting early and differently. Where many chase rapid growth, Thiel looks for systems that can hold up over […]
World models aim to build AI that can “imagine” the future so it can make better decisions. Up to now, a lot of people have been trying to pit world models against LLMs. Wayve, with GAIA-1, takes a different path, and it’s a pretty bold one. They push the concept in a very “LLM-compatible” direction: […]
In August 2025, Google DeepMind introduced Genie 3, a “world model”: an AI system that can create an interactive 3D world from a simple description. In practice, you can move through it like in a video game, in real time (around 24 frames per second), at 720p, and the world stays coherent for a few […]
When you want to integrate generative AI into a product, three options come up often: RAG, fine-tuning, and SLMs (Small Language Models). In practice, these are three different levers: one brings the right context into the prompt, another shapes the model’s behavior, and the third changes the economics and deployment. Understanding the 3 approaches RAG […]
Two big families dominate the conversation around “AI that understands the world”: So, “which one is best?” doesn’t have a single answer. Definition: what do we call a World Model? A world model learns a latent representation of an environment and a transition function: if I’m in state X and I take action A, what […]
