World Labs, co-founded by Fei-Fei Li, has launched Marble, a generative world model that creates downloadable 3D environments from various inputs like text and images. The product features AI-native editing tools and offers subscription tiers for different user needs, targeting gaming and visual effects industries.

Tencent has released HunyuanWorld-Voyager, an AI model that generates 3D-consistent video sequences from a single image, allowing users to explore virtual scenes by defining camera paths. While it offers impressive spatial consistency and depth information, it still relies on pattern matching rather than true 3D modeling, limiting its potential for real-time interactive experiences. The model requires significant computing power and has specific licensing restrictions for commercial use.
