Genie 4 vs Genie 3, side by side
Same dressing-room prompt, both generations. The clearest single piece of evidence for what changed.

Genie 4 examples
Twelve world concepts across natural, built, and speculative environments — what Genie 4 is designed to simulate.

Island piano duet
A performance on a shoreline — one of the clips where generated audio carries as much of the scene as the image does.

What to look for in real Genie 4 output
When you watch the official demos, these are the signals that tell you whether the world model is holding together — and where it is quietly failing.
Object permanence
Move past an object, then return. Is it still there, in the same place, with the same shape?
Contact physics
Watch feet meet ground and hands meet objects. Slipping and interpenetration are the common tells.
Light consistency
Do shadows and reflections agree with the light source as the camera moves?
Audio sync
Does the ambience match the place, and do character voices line up with their motion?
Drift over edits
Ask for a change mid-clip. Does the rest of the scene survive it?
Text legibility
Signs and labels — Google notes these are unreliable unless explicitly prompted.
Example questions
On the images and the demos.
