Eyeline Labs VChain – Chain-of-Visual-Thought for Reasoning in Video Generation for better AI physics
https://eyeline-labs.github.io/VChain/
https://github.com/Eyeline-Labs/VChain
Recent video generation models can produce smooth and visually appealing clips, but they often struggle to synthesize complex dynamics with a coherent chain of consequences. Accurately modeling visual outcomes and state transitions over time remains a core challenge. In contrast, large language and multimodal models (e.g., GPT-4o) exhibit strong visual state reasoning and future prediction capabilities. To bridge these strengths, we introduce VChain, a novel inference-time chain-of-visual-thought framework that injects visual reasoning signals from multimodal models into video generation. Specifically, VChain contains a dedicated pipeline that leverages large multimodal models to generate a sparse set of critical keyframes as snapshots, which are then used to guide the sparse inference-time tuning of a pre-trained video generator only at these key moments. Our approach is tuning-efficient, introduces minimal overhead and avoids dense supervision. Extensive experiments on complex, multi-step scenarios show that VChain significantly enhances the quality of generated videos.

Ian Curtis – AI world models generated these 3D environments from a single image in minutes, and I turned them into a custom spaceship game level in an afternoon
Here’s how I created it:
Design: I started by generating cohesive concept images in Midjourney, with sleek white interiors with yellow accents to define the overall vibe.
Generate: Using World Labs, I transformed those images into fully explorable and persistent 3D environments in minutes.
Assemble: I cropped out doorways inside the Gaussian splats, then aligned and stitched multiple rooms together using PlayCanvas Supersplat, creating a connected spaceship layout.
Experience: Just a few hours later, I was walking through a custom interactive game level that started as a simple idea earlier that day.
