World Models and the Future of Robotics

MCML PI Matthias Niessner joined the Handelsblatt Disrupt podcast to discuss the growing hype around “World Models”, AI systems capable of understanding and recreating the world in 3D.

In conversation with host Larissa Holzki, he explains how these models could become the “brains” of future robots, why Europe is seeing a rise in research-driven AI start-ups, and how technologies like World Models may transform entire industries.
