In summer of 2023, a t-shirt disrupted @HuisMarseille's museum shop, and the ripple effect of its appearance can still be felt.

Imagine being a striker who has never touched a ball or a gymnast who has never taken a leap. Potential is a terrible thing to waste. So, what if you can? There's only one way to find out.

A survey paper on World Action Models.
WAMs are moving robotics from reacting to the present toward predicting consequences before acting.
A model only counts as a WAM when its predicted future directly helps produce, score, verify, or train the action.
The trend is “dream less, act more”: full video generation is often too slow and memory-heavy for real control loops.
Many newer systems skip rendered video and use latent features, geometry, affordance maps, or motion representations instead.
Photorealistic futures are not necessarily the most useful; flow, masks, tactile signals, and physically grounded latents may constrain action better.
There is no single winning architecture because every design trades predictive richness against latency, memory, action-label cost, and physical reliability.
The biggest open question is whether robots can spend heavy predictive compute only when uncertainty, contact, or irreversible error makes it necessary.
