This research paper discusses the underexplored potential of leveraging video data for self-supervised learning and task-solving, bridging the gap between text-based language models and video generation. The authors highlight the limitations of current video generation capabilities and propose extending them to tackle real-world challenges in robotics, self-driving, and science domains. They also demonstrate how video generation can serve as a unified interface for absorbing internet knowledge, representing diverse tasks, and acting as planners, agents, compute engines, and environment simulators through techniques like in-context learning and reinforcement learning.

Video generation has the potential to be more than just entertainment. By using video data to learn from the physical world, we can solve real-world problems. This paper shows how video generation can be used to plan, act, calculate, and simulate environments, much like language models. It’s not just for movies and TV shows! With advancements in techniques like planning and reinforcement learning, we could see significant progress in areas like robotics, self-driving cars, and science.
