International research team launches OpenWorldLib to standardize world model definitions, excluding text-to-video generators like Sora

An international research team created OpenWorldLib to establish clear criteria for what qualifies as a world model

The project aims to bring order to the fragmented and inconsistent landscape of world model research

Text-to-video generators such as OpenAI's Sora are explicitly excluded from the team's world model definition

This standardization effort seeks to create common ground in how researchers classify and evaluate different AI systems
