Good morning ☀️, leader of the next generation.

We will talk about agents. AI agents.

They will change the way how we do business, how we interract and even how we do our everyday lives.

Agents will build business.

Agents will organize your day.

Agents will fill up your fridge.

I will let that sit in here for a while, so we can imagine and build the future together one agent at a time...

Decart launches photorealistic AI driving simulator, but long-term consistency remains a challenge.

Decart's new world model can simulate hours of photorealistic driving — with some caveats

AI startup Decart has unveiled Oasis 3, an interactive world model capable of generating photorealistic driving environments in real time. Available immediately via API, the model is initially aimed at autonomous vehicle companies that need to simulate rare or dangerous driving scenarios at scale, with plans to expand into robotics and other physical AI applications.

But Decart's broader ambition goes beyond the AV industry. The company wants to build a developer ecosystem around world models, much like OpenAI did with language models. "It's going to be the first usable world model that people can actually program on top of," said Dean Leitersdorf, co-founder and CEO. Decart already has a community of over 100,000 developers building on its real-time video model, Lucy, and Oasis 3 is designed to extend that foundation into physical AI. Access is priced at $0.02 per second, with enterprise pricing available depending on use case.

The launch comes weeks after Decart raised $300 million, pushing its valuation to nearly $4 billion. Strategic investors include Toyota, Adobe, eBay, and Nvidia — all of whom Leitersdorf views as potential customers. The funding followed strong demand for Decart's existing models in e-commerce and livestreaming.

Oasis 3 stands out for its photorealism and its ability to generate environments indefinitely — a major advantage for AV developers stress-testing edge cases. The model produces multi-camera environments, including one front-facing and two side-facing views. Much of this capability is powered by Decart's DOS (Decart Optimization Stack), proprietary software that runs models efficiently across Nvidia, Amazon, and Google hardware. Leitersdorf claims this vertical integration makes Decart's models more than ten times cheaper to run than competitors, and that the company has spent "drastically less" than $100 million in its entire lifetime.

In hands-on testing, Oasis 3 delivered the most photorealistic results of any world model tested, generating a convincing New York City street scene from a single text prompt. The ability to explore that environment for extended periods also sets it apart from rivals like Google's Genie 3 or World Labs's Marble.

However, the model has notable limitations. While initial scenes are impressive, the environment degrades quickly as you move through it. The New York street scene gradually lost its character, morphing into a generic urban landscape. Attempting to retrace a route revealed an entirely new environment had replaced the original. Controls were also unresponsive at times, making it difficult to steer the vehicle accurately — a problem shared by other world models.

A more fundamental issue is that the car can drive straight through other vehicles, exposing the model's inability to simulate physics properly. Leitersdorf acknowledges this is a "major research problem," explaining that training data is heavily skewed toward normal driving rather than collisions.

These consistency issues are partly architectural. Oasis 3 is auto-regressive, generating one frame at a time and referencing previous frames to determine what comes next. At tens of frames per second, each containing roughly 8,000 tokens, the model's context window fills up rapidly. "We're researching how to do longer context to store millions more tokens, and how to compress the memory into fewer tokens," Leitersdorf said.

A partial fix may come in the next version of the model, which will allow world generation to begin from a video of a real environment rather than just a text prompt or image. Leitersdorf believes this will improve long-term coherence, though he openly acknowledges that world models as a field are still in their early stages.

Despite the current shortcomings, Leitersdorf is optimistic about what happens when developers start experimenting. He draws a direct parallel to the early days of large language models and the unexpected applications that emerged once APIs became widely available. "When we talk again in three months, we'll be like, 'Here's 100 developers that all built 100 different applications with Oasis that surprised all of us,'" he said.

Warner Music buys AI startup to protect artists' intellectual property rights.

Warner Music acquires AI attribution startup Sureel AI

Warner Music Group (WMG) has acquired Sureel AI, a startup whose patented technology creates "AI DNA" for songs, tracing how AI models use musical elements. The move allows WMG to better monitor when its artists' work is used in AI-generated content or AI training.

Founded in 2022, Sureel offers IP provenance, compliance reporting, and a name, image, and likeness (NIL) attribution suite covering voice clones and AI avatars. It will continue operating as a standalone platform.

WMG, which previously sued and later licensed deals with AI music startups Suno and Udio, aims to ensure artists retain full control over their creative identities. Financial terms were not disclosed.
