Summary
According to a post on X by @OWW, a paper titled "Hierarchical World Models with Implicit Dynamics" is on arXiv, with authors including Gaoyue Zhou, Yvonne Wu, Zichen Jeff Cui, Nicolas Ballas, Mido Assran, Lerrel Pinto and Yann LeCun. The post also points to a separate paper by Gihyuk Ko, "From Concepts to Actual Causes," which addresses the concept-malfunction gap in robot foundation models and was accepted at a venue the snippet cuts off. The snippet does not include the results or details of either paper, so the post serves mainly as a pointer to the work.

What happened
"Hierarchical World Models with Implicit Dynamics," from Gaoyue Zhou, Yvonne Wu, Zichen Jeff Cui, Nicolas Ballas, Mido Assran, Lerrel Pinto and Yann LeCun, is on arXiv. Separately, Gihyuk Ko's "From Concepts to Actual Causes" on closing the concept-malfunction gap in robot foundation models was accepted at the SPAI...
Why it matters
Researchers and robotics teams following world models and robot foundation models may want to read these papers to see how the work is framed. The first paper focuses on hierarchical world models, and the second targets gaps between concepts and actual robot malfunctions. Next, readers should look for the full texts and any published results, since the post only names the titles.
