“Just in Time” World Modeling Supports Human Planning and Reasoning
The paper introduces a "just‑in‑time" (JIT) world‑modeling framework that constructs mental maps on the fly, gathering only essential information for planning. By intertwining simulation, visual search, and representation modification, the model updates its internal map as new obstacles are detected. Experiments in maze navigation and physical prediction show the JIT system stores far fewer objects yet makes high‑quality decisions, demonstrating remarkable efficiency. The authors suggest extending the approach to dynamic environments could further bridge human cognition and AI planning.
