AI Engineering - Build and Learn

Welcome to AI Build & Learn, a weekly AI engineering stream where we pick a new topic and learn by building together.

Up next: World Models with DreamerV3 (2026-09-04) An intro to world models: DreamerV3 learns a compact model of its environment and trains a policy inside imagined rollouts. Lightweight and RL-connected. RSVP | Join the Slack

World Models with DreamerV3
2026-09-04
An intro to world models: DreamerV3 learns a compact model of its environment and trains a policy inside imagined rollouts. Lightweight and RL-connected.
World Models with NVIDIA Cosmos: Physical AI
2026-09-11
NVIDIA Cosmos, an open world foundation model for physical AI: generative world simulation and action-conditioned rollouts, runnable locally on a DGX Spark.
World Models with V-JEPA 2: Latent-Space Prediction & Planning
2026-09-18
A different take on world models: V-JEPA 2 predicts in representation space instead of pixels. Self-supervised video understanding and latent planning, runs on a DGX Spark.
