<p>As a World Labs customer, I suspect they are using existing 3D assets when creating their environments. For one thing, a vendor of 3d models for AI mentioned Word Labs as a customer on a webinar.<p>I don't know if that undercuts what you're saying entirely. But if they're just protecting the splat in real-time based on the camera path through a 3d world, would the model truly understand that it's a floor?</p>

<p>Has your dream of being in band been unfairly denied by a lack of talent, discipline, or the ability to play any instrument whatsoever? Hope has arrived.<p>I am accepting prompt-to-audio auditions for my cartoon band.<p>How it works:<p>- I fine-tuned an audio model based on my own musical work and tastes
- you type prompts that create riffs, not entire songs, within that palette
- I arrange the riffs and write songs around them
- I use my human voice to sing over them
- people rant about AI destroying human creativity anyway<p>So far the primary reactions have been either 1) they hate this and think it shouldn't exist, or 2) they want to buy merchandise. Both are good signs.</p>
