Can a text-only model drive? Jev runs autonomous driving via a world model
jakedahn · x · 2026-09-22
Someone wired Jev — a model with no image inputs — to an unreleased world model used to train self-driving cars plus a local segmentation model, and let it drive autonomously. Result: 'Kinda? A little Crazy Taxi — but kinda amazing this works at all.' jakedahn finds the visual demos inspiring but notes Jev's lack of image input, saying things will get interesting once it goes multimodal.
