Generative AI has undergone remarkable progress in recent years, with the quality of AI-generated text and imagery today continuing to amaze. Other data modalities are following. The next frontier is to fully generate 3D worlds.
The first step to generative worlds is what we call a 2+1D bubble world approach, where generated 2D imagery is augmented with 1D depth information. Leveraging our recent research, published in the premiere deep learning conferences, we can realize generative 2+1D bubble worlds today, as we work towards full AI generated 3D worlds.
