DeepMind released Genie 3, an interactive multimodal world simulator with advanced spatial memory and real-time avatar control, and SIMA, an embodied training agent operating inside generated worlds. Alibaba introduced Qwen-Image-Edit, an open-weights image editor scoring ELO 1098 (#2) in the Image Editing Arena, running on Qualcomm NPUs, alongside Qwen-VL-Max entering the Vision top-20. Video models like Kling 2.1 showed a 235% improvement in frame control, with new entrants Luma Ray 2 and Runway Gen-4 Turbo debuting. Google provided free Veo 3 generations in Gemini App and enhanced Google Photos with natural-language edits. DeepSeek v3.1 launched with focus on SWE and Search agents, supporting local inference on Apple Silicon with 4-bit quantization achieving ~21 tok/s on M3 Ultra. The news highlights advances in interactive simulation, vision editing, video synthesis, and scalable local AI inference.
