WorldClaw generates agentic 3D open worlds at scale
Tencent Hunyuan
Tencent Hunyuan researchers present WorldClaw, an agentic coarse-to-fine pipeline that turns text prompts into large, freely explorable 3D worlds via three stages: intent planning, global terrain generation, and regional object population with editable, textured meshes, while preserving global spatial coherence.
