arXiv:2604. 16592v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This report of world models distinguishes prior works by the cognitive functions they innovate.
The paper introduces WROP, a dataset of 150 hand‑designed cognitive tasks aimed at testing object permanence in video generation models. Using Blender, the authors generate over 10,000 samples per task, compiling a 1.5 M‑sample training corpus and a 300‑question exam. They evaluate 14 video models, showing that their 16B world model, PWM‑WROP, ranks first among continuation models and third overall in a blind Elo study.
arXiv:2507. 05169v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: World Model, the algorithmic simulator of the real-world environment which biological agents experience and act upon, has been an emerging topic in recent years due to the rising need to develop virtual agents with artificial (general) intelligence.
arXiv:2507. 05169v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: World Model, the algorithmic simulator of the real-world environment which biological agents experience and act upon, has been an emerging topic in recent years due to the rising need to develop virtual agents with artificial (general) intelligence.
arXiv:2606. 00133v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: World models, internal simulators that learn the structure and dynamics of an environment, have emerged as a central paradigm in the pursuit of artificial general intelligence, enabling agents to predict, plan, and reason within learned representations.
arXiv:2609.05834v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: World models promise a general route to embodied intelligence: learn predictive dynamics once, then reason, plan, and act with them. Increasingly, the...
arXiv:2607. 06401v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: World models -- internal simulators that learn the structure and dynamics of an environment -- have become one of the most actively debated concepts in AI.
arXiv:2607. 00836v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: World models are increasingly used in embodied intelligence and generative simulation, yet their scope remains ambiguous across communities.
arXiv:2607. 26179v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLMs are widely regarded as alien intelligences, systems whose cognitive operations are fundamentally unlike our own.
arXiv:2607. 13560v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in generative and embodied AI have been driven by large-scale predictive learning over multimodal data.
World models -- internal simulators that learn the structure and dynamics of an environment -- have become one of the most actively debated concepts in AI. From model-based reinforcement learning and video generation to embodied robotics and ultimately, physical AI, researchers across AI subfields are building systems that they call "world models", yet there is no consensus on what a world model fundamentally is, what it should predict, or how it should be built.
arXiv:2601.13247v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Current Large Language Models (LLMs) exhibit a critical modal disconnect: they possess vast semantic knowledge but lack the procedural ground...
arXiv:2608.27549v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Physical understanding and reasoning depend on forming compact and generalizable representations of the world. While modern vision-language models can...
