Perspective maps a four-stage agenda for JEPA latent-world interpretability
Original title: World Model Interpretability: From Decoding Representations to Understanding Latent Worlds
Authors say existing work only covers grounding, while structure, causal checks, and intervention remain largely unexplored.
A perspective argues Joint-Embedding Predictive Architectures are becoming latent world models for prediction, planning, and control without a human-interpretable interface. It proposes Ground, Structure, Verify, and Act as a research agenda. Existing JEPA interpretability work is treated as early evidence only for the Ground stage.
- The agenda covers grounding, latent structure, causal verification, and intervention.
- Systematic analysis of how latent variables interact and evolve is called largely unexplored.
- The paper is a perspective, not a model or benchmark release.

Emerging Joint-Embedding Predictive Architectures (JEPAs) are moving beyond representation learning towards latent world models that support prediction, planning, and control. Yet their latent worlds naturally lack a human-interpretable interface.
