Nvidia's DreamDojo paper faces scrutiny over bugs and questionable results at ICML

A recent paper from Nvidia detailing a robotics world model called DreamDojo, based on their prior Cosmos 2.5 work, has been accepted as a spotlight presentation at the International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML). However, the paper's reported marginal improvements over its predecessor have raised suspicions. Further investigation by users revealed significant bugs in the released pre-training and post-training code, suggesting the paper's results may be erroneous and questioning how these issues were missed by both the authors and reviewers.
