INSIGHT

World Modeling Is More Than Language

  • World modeling extends beyond language to visual, spatial, and physical representations.
  • Spatial intelligence lets machines represent and participate in changes of the world's state.
INSIGHT

Spatial Models Unlock Immersive Uses

  • Spatially grounded world models unlock immersive creative and practical applications across storytelling, design, and healthcare.
  • Simulation bridges human learning and embodied AI training, making these models broadly useful.
ADVICE

Prioritize Spatial Data Collection

  • Invest in collecting multimodal spatial data because it's not as abundant as internet text.
  • Prioritize 3D geometry, physics, and dynamics data to build accurate world models.
