World Labs releases Frameboy, a real-time browser demo of its Atlas world model at up to 15 fps

The research preview streams frames from cloud GPUs as users steer the camera through worlds seeded from one image or several real views, and adds live exploration to the Viewfinder app; pricing and access limits were not given.
Why it matters
World Labs introduced Atlas two months ago as an autoregressive world model with precise camera control; Frameboy is the first public way to drive it interactively rather than wait for rendered clips. Speed matters because it changes how people build scenes, from careful planning to live exploration, and the company lists film scouting, construction checks, game levels and robot simulation as uses. Watch latency, cost per session and how it compares with Google's Genie.
