Meta Taught AI to Make Virtual Worlds from What You Say

Meta's CEO Mark Zuckerberg showed the Builder Bot prototype – an AI proof of concept that can make virtual worlds from what you say. 

In the video, Zuckerberg demonstrated how it works by giving commands like "let's go to the beach", "let's add an island", "let's play some tropical music". The Bot creates an environment based on both simple and complex commands, like "add altocumulus clouds" and "let's get some sounds of waves and seagulls." Unfortunately, Zuckerberg didn't say how the technology works, if Builder Bot generates the objects itself or if it takes them from a library. 

Meta is not planning to stop here and will bring more complex interactions in the future.

Additionally, Meta is planning to work on a universal translator, build AI models that can learn from less common languages, and design new ways to translate speech in real-time.
