The model features an improved physics engine and finer control over AI-generated elements, with applications in advertising, ecommerce, and media production. Beyond creative video, Lucy 2.5's physics improvements strengthen Decart's Oasis 3 world model simulation engine, which is used to train robots and autonomous vehicles in scenarios like dense fog, tornadoes, or industrial explosions. Decart has grown rapidly, backed by a $300M funding round from Amazon, Nvidia, Adobe Ventures, and Sequoia Capital, and has partnerships with AWS and Comcast for infrastructure. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
