PC Gamer has an article on it as well, but it's mostly a list of complaints about AI.

But the deal is--and this isn't open to the public yet--that you type in a brief prompt, and the AI generates an interactive 3D world that you can run around in for about 20 seconds before it all starts falling apart--but, hey, it's a good start.

It can even generate NPC's to interact with on a basic level.

I'm going to watch the Time one later. It sounds fascinating.

Nobody tell Ubisoft.

You mean Tencent? If Guillemot would agree to leave the company, they would probably already be owned by Tencent. I can't really blame them. Why would you let the guy who is running them into the ground, mostly due to his ego, still be in charge after you buy the company?

I don't think this will take off as well as the picture generation. Just going to require too much computing power for now.
