Summary: Runway shifts focus to world simulation

Why It Matters: The company is moving away from being seen as a simple video editor. They are now positioning themselves as a deep research lab building "General World Models" that simulate reality.

What Changed:

  • Changed the main headline from "Building AI to advance all industries" to "Building AI to Simulate the World."
  • Removed the "Apps for Everything" section which featured specific tools like background removal and upscaling.
  • Removed the "Creative Toolkit" section that listed features like virtual staging and storyboarding.
  • Removed the "Workflows" section that explained how to build custom node-based chains.
  • Added a new call-to-action section focused on hiring researchers and engineers to "merge art and science."
