Thinking with Camera: A Unified Multimodal Model for Camera-CentricUnderstanding and Generation

Thinking with Camera: AI That Can See and Imagine From Any Angle

Ever wondered how a camera could “think” like a human? Scientists have built a new AI called Puffin that does just that – it understands a scene from any viewpoint and can even create fresh images as if you moved the camera yourself.
Imagine a photographer who, without stepping outside, can instantly picture how a street looks from the next block; that’s the magic Puffin brings to your phone or computer.

Puffin learns by treating the camera like a language, so it matches words such as “wide‑angle” or “low‑shot” with the right visual cues.
Trained on millions of picture‑caption‑camera triples, it can guide you to the perfect shot, help you explore virtual worlds, or simply spark your imagination by showing a scene from a new angle you never considered.

This breakthrough means future apps could give you instant photography tips, create immersive game views, or help designers visualize spaces without moving a single object.
It’s a glimpse of how AI will make visual creativity as easy as chatting with a friend.
