Overview
- Access is beginning for adult Google AI Ultra subscribers in the United States, with broader availability planned later.
- Sessions are capped at 60 seconds for generation and navigation, a constraint Google says helps more people try the prototype as each session uses a dedicated chip.
- Project Genie runs on the Genie 3 world model, generating environments in real time as users move and simulating physics and interactions.
- It integrates Nano Banana Pro for world sketching and preview plus Gemini for assistance, supporting creation, real-time exploration, and remix or download workflows.
- Google cautions that realism, character control, and latency may be imperfect and notes that some previously announced Genie 3 features, such as dynamic in-world events, are not yet available.
