Researchers turn Yann LeCun's JEPA into a universal world model for physics, medicine and weather

A single world model is trying to work in physics and biology at once, a step toward SI that finds patterns on its own.
PhAI Labs, together with colleagues from Stanford, Oxford and Princeton, proposed JEPA-Anything: the state to be predicted is broken into parts, each processed by a separate module, and then reassembled. According to the authors, prediction error in a simplified Pong fell by 35%, and on the Burgers equation by almost half; the model reproduced Kepler's law on its own, with an exponent of −1.4991 instead of −1.5. On medical data, they say, it pointed to a candidate treatment for liver cancer, a combination of IL-18 and CD73 blockade that worked better than either component alone in organoids and tissues.
