Summary: Runway launches GWM-1 General World Model

Why It Matters: The product is moving beyond simple video editing. It is now focusing on "world simulation" that can be used for robotics, interactive environments, and digital humans.

What Changed:

  • Added GWM-1, a new model for real-time reality simulation.
  • Introduced three specific model versions: GWM Worlds, GWM Avatars, and GWM Robotics.
  • Shifted the homepage focus from "creative toolkits" to "foundational world models."
  • Added new partnership highlights with NVIDIA and UCLA.
  • Removed the detailed list of individual editing tools (like "Remove Background" or "Relight Scene") from the main page.
