Waymo World Model

The Waymo World Model is a generative model developed by Waymo to create hyper-realistic autonomous driving simulations. Built upon Google DeepMind's Genie 3, it generates photorealistic, controllable, multi-sensor driving scenes at scale, enabling the Waymo Driver to train and evaluate on billions of additional miles in virtual environments.
