Frameboy: Atlas in Real-time

The team behind Atlas, an autoregressive world model that generates frames one at a time with pixel-perfect camera control, released Frameboy, a research preview that streams frames from cloud GPUs to a browser at up to 15 fps as the user controls the camera. Frameboy serves a highly optimized Atlas variant, and the real-time capability is also integrated into Viewfinder, a web app (currently in closed beta) for building scenes frame-by-frame and exploring them live via a streaming Frameboy overlay. The post argues that faster generation lowers the cost of a "bad idea" and shifts interaction from cautious manual prompting toward intuitive exploration.
