## Summary

Google DeepMind released the Genie 4 world model research preview on October 27, marking the first native support for synchronized audio-video generation, extending the duration of a single coherent world from 1 minute in the previous generation to about 2 minutes, and supporting real-time scene modification via typing. Google also demonstrated an experiment in which Genie 4 worked with Gemini 4 Argon to direct a humanoid robot in playing checkers, but it is currently available only to a small number of testers, and ordinary users need a Google AI Ultra subscription.
