Researchers have developed a "Programmable World Model" that separates state evolution from video generation, allowing for persistent and controllable environments. This framework uses natural language instructions to create executable programs that define entity states and transition rules, enabling direct control over interactions. The system also introduces state-augmented 3D bounding boxes as an intermediate representation for video generation and includes a benchmark called CombatStateBench for evaluation. Separately, a concept of "programmable cellular automata" is explored, where systems are represented as Python code, modularizing local and decision functions to improve understanding and potentially accelerate problem-solving.
