I recently stumbled upon a question that got me thinking: can world foundation models be developed and improved solely through training and testing data, or is robot intervention always necessary? This curiosity sparked an interest in exploring the possibilities of world models for PhD research.
As I dive into this topic, I’m realizing how complex and multifaceted it is. World foundation models aim to create a comprehensive understanding of the world, and the role of robot intervention is still a topic of debate. Some argue that robots can provide valuable real-world data and interactions, while others believe that advanced algorithms and large datasets can suffice.
So, what does this mean for researchers and developers? It means we have a lot to consider when designing and training world foundation models. We must think about the type of data we need, how to collect it, and how to integrate it into our models. We must also consider the potential benefits and limitations of robot intervention.
If you’re also interested in world foundation models, I’d love to hear your thoughts. How do you think we can balance the need for real-world data with the potential of advanced algorithms? What are some potential applications of world foundation models that excite you the most?
As I continue to explore this topic, I’m excited to learn more about the possibilities and challenges of world foundation models. Whether you’re a seasoned researcher or just starting out, I hope you’ll join me on this journey of discovery.
