Part 2/5:

The speed and scalability of this model are made possible by the use of transformers, the AI architecture that has driven a wave of innovation in the field. These transformers allow Oasis to process information and generate new frames at an incredible rate, delivering a truly interactive experience.

Mastering the Minecraft Sandbox

The developers of Oasis have tapped into a vast treasure trove of Minecraft gameplay footage, using open-source videos collected by OpenAI to train their model. This wealth of data has allowed the AI to learn the fundamentals of building, exploring, and interacting within a dynamic, open-world environment.

Maintaining the stability and consistency of the generated world has been a crucial challenge. The team has employed a technique called "dynamic noising," which introduces small amounts of randomness during the training process, forcing the AI to adapt and learn to maintain stability even in the face of unpredictable changes.
