Latest update (11-10 14:33): IFM AI releases PAN 2, an open foundation world model for physical intelligence

Overview: MBZUAI's Institute of Foundation Models (IFM) releases PAN 2, an open-weight world model that pairs a text-planning LLM with a 29B diffusion model that renders video. IFM says PAN 2 completes 75.1% of steps correctly and finishes 34.0% of plans in full, versus 8.7% of steps without the LLM. The post does not describe the test setup. Santiago says the weights, training code and inference code are released under Apache 2.0.

vLLM says vLLM-Omni supports PAN 2 text-to-video and image-to-video generation from release day, making the model available through its open inference stack.
