Code World Model: Coding Agent as the World Brain for Video Generation
Scobleizer · x · 2026-08-28
Westlake University's AGI Lab and NTU propose Code World Model: a language-model-brained paradigm where a coding agent continuously maintains an explicit world state (as code) that then guides a video model to generate high-fidelity visuals.
Two motivations:
- Complex world interactions involve goals, rules, causality and other high-level semantics beyond motion and collisions, requiring LM reasoning.
- Games—the main data source for video world models—are just visual outputs of code execution; learning action-to-video mappings directly forces the video model to implicitly approximate program outputs, which is inefficient and entangles world evolution with visual generation.
A consistent world state unlocks long-horizon generation, demonstrated with periodic style changes every 60 seconds and coherent characters across stylized scenes.
