Yeah.

And there's some core ingredients that we're bringing together in data, right?

We're making it way easier to actually get imitation learning to work, way easier to make reinforcement learning work in combination with that.

We have pre-trained models that can be used as a baseline for a lot of things.

World models, advanced simulation tech, all of these things come together.

And then you're sort of limited by your creativity, like, well, what do I want to do?

And

If you think about any kind of physically high task as it's, it's a, you are understanding the world and you're manipulating something and, and we can build that.

That can be built now much more easily in this, in this tool.

And we had a team at CBPR recently, and I was joking with them about just how many different ways you can define what a world model is.

But when we're thinking about a world model, we're typically thinking about it in the context of a simulation, right?

Something that is effectively… We started as a sim company.

Yeah.

Something that is sufficiently able to represent the real world and is reactive in a sense where you can actually have, let's say, an autonomous agent that's acting in this world and the world model is behaving appropriately in response to that autonomous agent.

Yeah, so this is like, let's say simulation broadly, right?

There's so many different ways of doing simulation.

And so the more classical approaches of simulation, very physics based, and you can decompose physics in all different ways and all different levels of abstraction.

And you can simulate with sensors or without sensors.

And is it is just a body simulation?

Or are we actually simulating, for example, the light in the environment or the...
