Google Releases Genie 4 World Model, Supporting Real-Time Control and Native Audio
Google releases the Genie 4 world model, calling it its most realistic and interactive world model to date. The model can control events, camera angles, and actions in dynamic environments in real time, generate native audio that matches the world, and use Gemini's reasoning capabilities to generate more coherent multi-step events. It is currently available as a research preview to trusted testers, and will later be offered to Google AI Ultra subscribers through Project Genie, and to early partners through the Gemini API and AI Studio.
