AI system can envision an entire world from a single picture
phys.orgJohns Hopkins computer scientists have created an artificial intelligence system capable of "imagining" its surroundings without having to physically explore them, bringing AI closer to humanlike reasoning.
The new system—called Generative World Explorer, or GenEx—needs only a single still image to conjure an entire world, giving it a significant advantage over previous systems that required a robot or agent to physically move through a scene to map the surrounding environment, which can be costly, unsafe, and time-consuming. The team's results are posted to the arXiv preprint server.
