Microsoft Research's Mirage gives video generation a persistent spatial memory that doesn't forget what's around the corner

Mirage, a video world model from Microsoft Research and several universities, stores scene information directly in latent space instead of pixel-based point clouds. That slashes compute time and graphics memory while keeping scenes spatially consistent through long camera moves. It still can't reliably track moving objects across segments.
