Tencent Hunyuan open-sourced Hy-Nomas, a video world model you steer as it generates: it builds scenes segment-by-segment autoregressively, and between segments you can add characters, change style, describe actions, or set camera paths, with a persistent KV cache keeping the world consistent. Stack: segment-autoregressive DiT + Qwen text encoder + camera conditioning + PixelUMM decoder, distilled to 8 denoising steps at 720×1280/24FPS. Weights are Apache 2.0 on Hugging Face; standard config needs 8 GPUs, but an INT8 + CPU offload config runs on a single RTX 4090. Ships with a cinematic LoRA and Hy-Nomas-Bench (280 test cases). Great as a previs sandbox: feed scenes as 5-second beats one at a time.
