Recent advances in video editing have been largely driven by large-scale instruction-based datasets. However, existing datasets still suffer from two critical limitations. First, target videos are commonly produced by automatic editing models, which may introduce visible artifacts and unreliable supervision signals. Second, most public datasets rely primarily on textual instructions, while lacking visual references that are crucial for precise, identity-preserving, and controllable editing. To address these limitations, we introduce RefVideo-6M, a large-scale reference-guided editing dataset containing 5 million video editing samples and 1 million image editing samples. To ensure reliable supervision, our dataset uses a construction pipeline that treats artifact-free real videos as editing targets and generates quality-filtered input conditions with multiple editing experts. In addition, it provides approximately 6 million visual references, covering diverse reference types and editing scenarios, thereby enabling models to learn fine-grained visual correspondence beyond text-only instructions. Based on RefVideo-6M, we further train a reference-guided video editing model, Ref-MoT, to evaluate the effectiveness and scalability of the proposed dataset. Extensive experiments demonstrate that RefVideo-6M provides substantially more reliable supervision than existing datasets and enables the training of powerful editing models with improved visual quality, controllability, and reference consistency. The open-source dataset is available at https://huggingface.co/datasets/RefVideo6M/RefVideo6M.

Latent reward models can supervise visual diffusion models without decoding intermediate states into pixel space. This makes alignment with human preferences more efficient. However, existing latent reward models output only scalar scores. They do not estimate the uncertainty of each prediction. The generator therefore cannot determine which feedback is reliable. This can drive optimization in the wrong direction and lead to reward hacking. We propose \textsc{SURE}, a unified latent-space framework for image and video diffusion models. It learns reward distributions and directly uses their reliability to guide dense post-training. First, we propose sample-adaptive latent reward model (\textsc{SURE-LRM}). It predicts a Gaussian utility for each noisy latent. Its mean predicts the reward score. Its variance reflect the uncertainty of prediction without human annotation. The learned distribution then guides post-training through uncertainty-guided reward feedback learning (\textsc{SURE-REFL}). This method provides uncertainty-guided dense feedback along the denoising trajectory. At selected transitions, \textsc{SURE-REFL} queries the frozen \textsc{SURE-LRM}. It converts detached variance into reliability weights for samples at the same transition. Each weighted reward is backpropagated only through its local transition. The entire process remains in latent space and requires neither pixel-space decoding nor the full denoising graph. Experiments show that \textsc{SURE-LRM} improves preference prediction over strong baselines. \textsc{SURE-REFL} achieves the sota performance among various metrics and further improves optimization stability. It also achieves the highest VBench quality, semantic, and total scores among the evaluated methods.

Artificial general intelligence ultimately requires agents that can reason and act in the physical world. Action models, vision-language-action policies, and world models have advanced this goal, while World Action Models (WAMs) are particularly promising because they connect candidate interventions with predicted consequences. However, progress remains fragmented: models use incompatible action spaces and prediction targets, datasets and tasks follow different conventions, and runtime systems expose limited interfaces for reuse and evaluation. We review the evolution toward WAMs and organize these limitations into three coupled gaps: model roles and representations, objectives and standardization, and system composition. Building on this analysis, we propose a co-evolution roadmap for physical intelligence centered on the \emph{embodied brain}, a long-term model target for integrating multimodal context, comparing candidate interventions, and issuing state-transition or capability requests rather than direct actuator commands. WAMs provide promising prototypes for its predictive functions, while a physical harness grounds model outputs through tools, controllers, verification, and trace logging. Shared contracts align heterogeneous models, data, tasks, and embodiments, and closed-loop post-training converts verified interaction into reusable experience. Together, these components define a modular physical-intelligence stack for adaptive and self-improving embodied agents.

This work proposes "Directing the World", a fast autoregressive framework for controllable world-model video generation with compositional human-motion and camera-trajectory control, and introduces a Fast-Slow Memory training strategy to stabilize long-horizon rollout learning and improve convergence.
Recent advances in video diffusion models have greatly improved visual fidelity, yet their generated motions often violate physical plausibility. We observe a common kinematic failure,"motion entanglement", the unintended coupling of independent motion sources, such as camera movement and object motion. We identify that this issue stems from data bias and the reconstruction-based training design of diffusion models. Training on noisy videos that still retain coarse motion cues inadvertently encourages the model to replicate existing motion without an incentive to learn how to model kinematically-grounded motions. To address this, we propose a Self-Imagination Fine-Tuning (SIFT) paradigm, which enables the model to learn from its own generated videos rather than directly reconstructing real ones, breaking the reconstruction shortcut. We further employ motion-aware discriminative supervision and a progressive hard-case replay strategy to stabilize and accelerate learning. By leveraging freely-generated text prompts, our method can densely cover a broad motion space, including rare or finely-disentangled scenarios that would be costly to collect as video data. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach substantially improves the physical realism, motion disentanglement, and controllability of generated videos.
