### AI overview

Researchers at MIT CSAIL and Tsinghua University developed GeoPT, a pre-training approach that uses 3D simulations of mechanical interactions to help AI models learn physics more efficiently. The article reports that models using the approach reached peak performance twice as fast and trained on up to 60 percent less data than leading models.

### Source excerpt

"GeoPT" helps AI models understand the basics of physics so they can simulate how objects respond to things like wind and water more efficiently and accurately.
