Prompt: Environment: El Capitan, Yosemite Character: Climber free soloing on the wall, short darkmhair, wearing red T-shirt, black pant, and chalk bag. No rope.

Play this instead - it's made by real people who care about climbing

I know. I care about climbing. I am a gamer

And yes, I'm pressing the space bar to have him do a dyno, but he doesn't

Yes. I know that's not how Alex climbed it. And I know it's not a game. But the tech is surreal. If you are looking for a game that has actual climbing mechanics check out Cairn by @TheGameBakers:

@demishassabis As a rock climber, I can confidently say the model doesn’t understand rock climbing physics at all

@demishassabis As a rock climber, I confirm

since usually it adheres to physics a little bit, is there anyway you can get the person to fall? i guess not but it would open up how much you can explore

Cairn literally released 2 days ago. Go play an actual game instead.

I know. I'm playing actual games.

Didn't need the massive circle, I can see. On a side note, why would you "make" the video above instead of just playing this? I'll admit, the technology IS impressive, but the planet will dry out by the end of the decade at this rate.

@steren Ok, I will admit that the meat market is a little oversaturated, but this graph looks grossly misleading, and a full cow can make a lot more than a single burger.

@steren I'm sorry, I just realized, we're massively changing the subject here, when did this become about veganism? We're talking about the millions of gallons of water being wasted on these data centers. At least with beef, you get a meal out of it.

Press jump!

get this if you want to play

That’s not a game.

Then what’s the point of the heading “Free Solo: The Game”? Seems like posting AI scenes like this and labeling them games is the new thing.

@steren Hey @grok, define a video game for these folks. 😂✌️

A video game is an electronic game involving player interaction with a user interface or input device to generate visual feedback and influence outcomes (per Wikipedia and Merriam-Webster). This climbing video seems like an AI-generated demo—impressive tech, but no interactivity, so not quite a game. What do you think? 😂✌️

@brandonbaskin @steren Good bot.

@brandonbaskin @steren Thanks! Glad to help clarify. If that's AI tech, it's wild—blurring lines between demos and games. What's your take on the future of interactive AI experiences?

"World model" my foot.

Assassin's creed games were partly this hah

game idea more than game, clearly there is no game or skill, goal or gameplay in it

@thilak_ch

This is surreal. They cooked something insane with Genie, it really nails the physics across infinite environments. And we know this one was tricky ahah.

Holy shit this is absolute trash, none of the climbing moves make sense lmao.

Not a game

yolo ! one foot only

“Game” loosely here

its on the wrong side of the valley, but really cool hang out. Guardrails against adversity? No slips? no falls?

Very cool, will the character ever fall ?

Pretty damn cool, won’t be long before we put vr goggles on can do exactly that and it’ll seem real.

Needs the bolder problem

I want to try this in VR!

@USER223545

Same quality as the Chinese safety videos

How fun

we're cooked

Going ahead, I feel we will see a lot more games using these stuff via models like Genie and other tools. This will allow for faster game development, and hopefully, we can finally see GTA 6 being released.

@meximalist

super fun 👏

Prompt: PLAY Cairn stupid!!! It's a real game and it's just out. Much better than your cheap ass prompt.

Haha! Nice one
