Researchers have developed Internalized Visual Thinking (IVT), a new framework designed to enhance proactive video reasoning in multimodal large language models. Unlike existing Visual CoT methods that generate intermediate images, IVT trains models to predict future visual representations during training. This allows the model to reason directly at inference time, significantly reducing latency by over five times while maintaining or improving performance on various video reasoning tasks. The findings suggest that explicit pixel-space generation is not essential for effective video reasoning, and internalized predictive world modeling can lead to more accurate and efficient multimodal reasoners.
