New AI model turns photos into explorable 3D worlds, with caveats

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-18 01:56:07

On Tuesday, Tencent released HunyuanWorld-Voyager, a new open-weights AI model that generates 3D-consistent video sequences from a single image, allowing users to pilot a camera path to "explore" virtual scenes. The model simultaneously generates RGB video and depth information to enable direct 3D reconstruction without the need for traditional modeling techniques. However, it won't be replacing video games anytime soon. The results aren't true 3D models, but they achieve a similar effect: The

I Had ChatGPT Order Me a Pizza. This Could Change Everything

Ordering a pizza online is wildly more interesting when AI does it. When OpenAI announced ChatGPT Agent, an AI-powered tool that handles complex tasks from start to finish, I didn't fully understand its capabilities. OpenAI says it can be your personal assistant, but that means little to someone who's never had one. I imagine if I did have a personal assistant, I might ask them to order me a pizza. So, that's what I did. Near CNET's New York office is a relatively new spot named Cello's Pizzer

Warp brings new diff-tracking tools to the AI coding arms race
