Children exhibit visual understanding from limited experience, orders of magnitude less than our best models. We introduce the Zero-shot World Model (ZWM). Trained on a single child's visual experience, BabyZWM rapidly generates competence across diverse benchmarks with no task-specific training. 🧵

Very exciting preprint from Dan Yamins' NeuroAI lab, proposing Probabilistic Structure Integration (PSI), a way to bootstrap from pixels to higher-level visual abstractions through a kind of visual prompting. One of the deepest and most original ideas I've read in a while. arxiv.org/abs/2509.09737

We present Probabilistic Structure Integration (PSI), a system for learning richly controllable and flexibly promptable world models from data. PSI consists of a three-step cycle. The first step, Prob...
