Dr. Fei-Fei Lee from Stanford just published a brilliant essay on this, and honestly, it's fascinating stuff. The basic idea is that current AI models like ChatGPT are essentially "wordsmiths in the dark"—they're clever with words but completely disconnected from physical reality. They can't see, touch, or interact with space the way we do. World models aim to change that by giving AI the ability to understand and simulate 3D environments, predict how objects behave, and reason about physics. It's proper science fiction becoming science fact. The applications are wild and they'll roll out in stages. First up is creative tools—think video games and storytelling where you can generate entire interactive worlds. That's why OpenAI is apparently burning through £15 million a day on Sora videos; they're not being frivolous, they're laying the groundwork for spatial consistency. Next comes robotics, where we can train models millions of times faster in simulated environments rather than the physical world. And eventually, the holy grail: scientific applications where we can simulate physics, fold proteins, and run complex experiments at impossible speeds. We also covered some practical bits about vibe coding tools, Google AI Studio is free and surprisingly capable if you can find the build mode buried in their interface. It's early days, but world models could genuinely be the next massive leap in AI development.
