## AI overview

Waypoint-1.5 is Overworld's real-time video world model, designed to generate interactive environments locally on consumer hardware. The release adds 720p and 360p model tiers, supports up to 60 FPS on higher-end desktop GPUs, broadens hardware accessibility, uses nearly 100 times more training data than Waypoint-1, and applies more efficient video modeling to improve coherence and responsiveness.
