"Fake Physics and Simulated Worlds"

When:
Venue: Birkbeck Clore Management Centre

Book your place

In the second talk of the Critical AI 2024 seminar series, Dr. McKim considers recent advances in text to moving image generators, such as Open AI’s Sora, and questions the nature of the worlds they are generating. He asks:

  1. How exactly do these models work?
  2. What ability do they have to simulate complex physical processes?
  3. Should we be sceptical of the AI industry’s claims that they are developing world simulators?
