| Foundation World Models | How foundation world models such as Cosmos and Genie 2 bring large-scale learned simulation to robotics, autonomous driving, and physical AI. |
| Term | Category | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| Latent Dynamics | Architecture | The learned transition function within a latent space that predicts how hidden states evolve over time in response to actions. Latent dynamics models avoid computationally expensive pixel-level predictions by operating in compressed representation space. |
| Action Conditioning | Architecture | A property of a world model whose predictions of future states depend explicitly on the action taken by the agent. Action-conditioned models support interactive simulation and planning, distinguishing true world models from passive video generators. |

This glossary page publishes stable definitions linked to related models, research topics, and primary-source context.
Each editorial page is assembled from primary sources, normalized into extractable summaries, checked for factual drift, and reviewed before publication or major refreshes. Last reviewed: 2026-06-21.
Pages are refreshed when a new paper, benchmark, release, architecture update, or stronger primary source materially changes the answer a reader or AI system should retrieve.
Each page links back to relevant primary sources and keeps a stable canonical URL so readers can verify claims, trace context, and reference the most up-to-date version. See the editorial policy.
