LingBot-World: an open-source video world simulator with long memory and real-time control

This paper argues that video generators can be pushed beyond short clips into an interactive world simulator: one that keeps track of what happened earlier, reacts to user actions, and still moves fast enough to feel live.

arXiv 2601.205407/23/2026
A white-canvas illustration showing two side-by-side video sequences of the same scene: one sequence stays coherent as a ball rolls, a person walks, and a door remains where it was; the other sequence looks visually plausible frame by frame but objects change position inconsistently, the ball disappears, and the door location drifts. Blue arrows indicate cause and effect across time. Short labels only: "Dreamer", "Simulator", "Memory", "Cause", "Effect".

FAQ

AI paper explainer FAQ

How is PaperBridge different from an AI paper summarizer?

A typical summarizer compresses the abstract and conclusion. PaperBridge also explains mechanisms, evidence quality, ablations, limitations, and practical meaning with original diagrams.

How can I find or submit a paper?

Search by title, paste an arXiv, paper-page, or public PDF link, or sign in and upload a public paper PDF. Existing reports open immediately; missing language versions can be generated.

Which languages are supported?

The public library currently focuses on Chinese, English, and Japanese reports. The generation workflow also supports Spanish.
