For centuries, the scientific method has been the greatest engine of human progress. At Google, our mission is deeply rooted in building tools to accelerate it. We believe that a new era of discovery won’t come from narrow, specialized models, but general agents that empower researchers across every scientific field. That’s why we are introducing…
NVIDIA AI team have released Cosmos 3. It is a family of omnimodal world models for physical AI. The models combine physical reasoning, world generation, and action generation. All three capabilities live inside one open model. NVIDIA open sourced the checkpoints, training scripts, deployment tools, and datasets. The Cosmos 3 release targets robotics, autonomous vehicles,…
# Introduction
For a long time, running transformer models meant maintaining a Python server, paying for GPU time, and routing every inference request through an API. The user typed something, it left their machine, touched your infrastructure, and came back as a prediction. That architecture made sense when the models were too large…
Last year, Nano Banana brought Gemini's intelligence to image generation and editing. Since then, it’s helped millions of people restore old photos, design from sketches and visualize ideas in ways that weren’t possible before. From the start we built Gemini to be natively multimodal from the ground up, and now we’re taking the next step.…
Genesis AI released Genesis World 1.0. The platform consists of four components: the Genesis World physics engine, Nyx (a real-time path-traced renderer), Quadrants (a Python-to-GPU compiler), and a simulation interface. It is designed to accelerate robotics foundation model development through simulation-based evaluation.
Robotics model development has two bottlenecks: data and iteration speed. The field has…
# Introduction
Training a machine learning model and observing the loss decrease is a feeling of progress, until the validation accuracy reaches a plateau or the loss begins to spike, and you're not sure what caused it. At that point, most people add more logging or start tuning hyperparameters, hoping something changes. What…
Street View: ground your worlds in real places When creating imaginative worlds in Project Genie, you can now also base them on real places. Just tap the Maps pin to choose a place in the U.S. and optionally select a style for your world, like “Desert Sands” or “Stone Age.” Then, describe your character —…
# Introduction
Even as AI can now generate huge amounts of code, system design remains one of the few skills that cannot be easily replaced. Writing code is only one part of building real products. Designing scalable, reliable, and efficient systems still requires experience, trade-offs, stakeholder discussions, and strong engineering judgment.
That is…
Liquid AI just released LFM2.5-VL-450M, an updated version of its earlier LFM2-VL-450M vision-language model. The new release introduces bounding box prediction, improved instruction following, expanded multilingual understanding, and function calling support — all within a 450M-parameter footprint designed to run directly on edge hardware ranging from embedded AI modules like NVIDIA Jetson Orin, to mini-PC…
The Asia-Pacific region is a global engine for economic growth, but it's also highly vulnerable to climate change. While green technologies are gaining momentum, a recent report shows they aren’t scaling fast enough to keep up with the region’s rising environmental risks. To help innovators tackle these environmental challenges, we’re launching an inaugural Google DeepMind…
