Thrilled to share what we've been working on! Open-ended self-improvement for many complex skills in complex worlds, including infinitely many Genie worlds. Exciting! 🚀🌍✨ A huge congrats to the wonderful Sima team. 🎉
SIMA 2 is our most capable AI agent for virtual 3D worlds. 👾🌐 Powered by Gemini, it goes beyond following basic instructions to think, understand, and take actions in interactive environments – meaning you can talk to it through text, voice, or even images. Here’s how 🧵
