Three families of world model architectures, from Dreamer 4 to World Labs' Atlas

TheTuringPost · x · 2026-10-10

Turing Post breaks down world models into three architecture families: (1) generated observation — predicting next image/video frames/tokens (Dreamer 4, Waymo World Model, Cosmos-Predict2.5); (2) compact latent state — compressing the world into internal representations (DayDreamer, LeCun's JEPA, MuZero); (3) explicit object-and-space structure (World Labs' Atlas, TextOCVP, FIOC-WM).
