Researchers stretch LeCun's JEPA AI into a universal world model that works from physics to biology

World models learn how a system will change so a machine can plan ahead, and most predict a single future state. JEPA-Anything splits that forecast into parts, one module per pattern, then reassembles them. Tested across physics, robotics, weather and biology, it also flagged a liver cancer drug pair that, in early lab work, beat its two parts at killing tumor cells.
