The paper presents a work-centric, system-level perspective on work agents as systems combining foundation models and runtime harnesses to execute tasks in stateful workspaces. It introduces work persistence and work openness as two complementary dimensions, classifies digital work into five forms based on task scope and organization, and identifies five core capability families required for reliable execution. It examines model optimization, harness optimization, and joint optimization approaches, providing a unified framework for understanding, optimizing, and evaluating work agents.

**QUESTION** — How can LLMs automatically construct and continually refine scientific principles based on observations during test-time discovery?

The authors propose Principia, an LLM-based framework that constructs and refines scientific principles during test-time discovery. The framework forms comparative causal hypotheses from inputs and observations, then synthesizes them into inductive principles. By applying these principles to gather new observations and iteratively update hypotheses, the system allows scientific knowledge to continuously evolve. Experiments across molecular optimization and protein engineering benchmarks show that Principia outperforms baselines relying on internal knowledge or experience summaries.

**QUESTION** — What are the operational frameworks, risks, and requirements that govern trustworthy recursive self-improvement in large AI systems?

This survey provides an operational definition and process framework for recursive self-improvement (RSI) in large model systems that make persistent modifications to prompts, weights, workflows, and tools. It organizes trustworthy RSI requirements into four interconnected themes focusing on genuine improvement, behavioral constraints, security, and transparency. The paper analyzes improvement stages S1 through S4, reviews inherited inheritance risks and safeguards, and establishes requirements for independent longitudinal assessment of successor systems.

_multimodal · 275 upvotes_

**QUESTION** — How can world modeling serve as a unifying framework to examine and organize recent advances in video foundation models?

This survey uses world modeling as a unifying framework to connect advances in understanding and generating visual sequences, viewing observed video as a partial, lossy projection of a latent temporal world. The paper organizes literature around four complementary operations: reading world properties, writing video synthesis, sharing modeling mechanisms, and interacting with world states. Through this, the authors trace a shift in emphasis from clip-level recognition toward persistent states and causal validity, while outlining open challenges.

### 23. [WorldCast: World-Consistent Character Video Generation with Large-Angle Camera Control](https://consonance.fyi/en/lecture/arxiv%3A2610.33135.md)

_multimodal · 49 upvotes_

**QUESTION** — How can character video generation maintain world consistency and identity under large-angle camera trajectories?

The paper presents WorldCast, a framework for world-consistent character video generation under diverse large-angle camera motions. It back-projects the initial frame into a 3D point cloud to obtain explicit geometric guidance and coverage masks. To address incomplete character regions revealed by viewpoint changes, it introduces Geometry-Aligned Memory Attention (GAMA) to guide the retrieval and injection of view-relevant character features using relative camera poses and a common coordinate frame.

### 24. [Spatial Audio Generation and Editing with Executable Plans and Self-Distilling Transfusion](https://consonance.fyi/en/lecture/arxiv%3A2610.34415.md)

_multimodal · 57 upvotes_

**QUESTION** — How can native spatial audio generation and editing be unified using executable plans and joint transfusion?

The paper presents AMBIT, a unified framework for native First-Order Ambisonics (FOA) generation and editing. It employs a shared Transfusion backbone coupling autoregressive planning with rectified-flow rendering through executable ScenePlans specifying source content and trajectories. For editing, contrastive features and full reference latents preserve acoustic detail. It includes an FOA-aware continuous VAE and joint Transfusion on-policy self-distillation (OPSD). Evaluations across speech, music, and sound show improved generation and spatial quality over compared baselines.
