“And so looking forward, as we continue to scale up models like Sora, we think we're going to be able to build these, like, world simulators, where essentially, you know, anybody can interact with them. I, as a human, can have my own simulator running, and I can go and, like, give a human in that simulator work to go do, and they can come back with it after they're done. And we think this is a pathway to AGI, which is just going to happen as we scale up Sora in the future.”

Peebles: Video models will eventually surpass humans as physical world models
“We're optimistic that Sora will, you know, supersede that kind of capability and will, you know, in the long run enable it to be More intelligent one day than humans as world models.”
Peebles: Training AI on raw video is essential for robotics
“There's so much you learn from video, which you don't necessarily get from other modalities, which companies like OpenAI have invested a lot in the past, like language, you know, like the minutia of like how arms and joints move through space, you know, again,…”
Peebles: Generative video models are on the critical path to AGI
“Yeah, we absolutely believe models like Sora are really on the critical pathway to AGI.”
Peebles: Training on raw video is essential for future embodied robotics
“So you learn so much about the physical world just from training on raw video that we really believe that it's going to be essential for
things like physical embodiment moving forward.”
