🌍 Marble: The Multimodal World Model for 3D AI Creation
Marble marks a leap toward spatially intelligent AI, moving beyond flat generation into dynamic, 3D interactive worlds. It embodies a shift toward multimodal, spatially aware generative systems with broad cross-industry applications.
WorldLabs AI has released Marble, a multimodal generative world model that creates and edits 3D environments from text, image, video, or layout inputs. It features multi-image prompting, native AI 3D editing, and a tool called Chisel for direct 3D scene sculpting. Users can build, expand, and export worlds as Gaussian splats, meshes, or videos—unlocking new possibilities in gaming, design, robotics, and simulation.

🧪 Blender Lab: An Innovation Hub for Open 3D Research
A strategic leap for Blender, formalizing innovation while preserving production stability. It reinforces Blender’s position as a mature, open, and research-oriented creative ecosystem.
The Blender Foundation has launched Blender Lab—an experimental space for designers, developers, and researchers to prototype cutting-edge ideas. It fosters research on emerging technologies like VR, touch interaction, AI/ML integration, and rendering advancements, operating independently of Blender’s main release cycle.

⚙️ Parsing Integers Safely in C
A strong example of secure programming—favoring explicit, safe parsing and validation over legacy shortcuts. It underscores cURL’s dedication to long-term robustness and correctness.
Daniel Stenberg explains why cURL removed unsafe integer parsing functions like `atoi()` and `strtol()`, replacing them with a robust custom 64-bit parser `curlx_str_number()`. The new approach improves error handling, overflow protection, and cross-platform consistency.

🌐 Fei-Fei Li vs. Yann LeCun: Competing Visions of AI World Models
A sharp exploration of how ‘world model’ has evolved from a buzzword into divergent paradigms—spanning 3D creativity, predictive learning, and cognitive simulation.
This analysis dissects how Fei-Fei Li’s World Labs, Yann LeCun, and DeepMind each interpret ‘world models’ differently. Li’s Marble builds interactive 3D environments for humans, LeCun envisions predictive internal models for autonomous agents, and DeepMind’s Genie 3 bridges the two with real-time video simulation. Together, they represent distinct paths in AI perception, simulation, and cognition.
