Visual General Intelligence: A White Paper
This paper reconsiders intelligence from a vision-centered perspective and examines whether intelligence emerging from visual experience and learning may provide a pathway toward AGI. In the language domain, beginning with the introduction of the Transformer architecture, the GPT series has demonstrated transfer to unseen tasks through autoregressive language modeling on web-scale text combined with aggressive scaling. This raises a natural question, namely, what capabilities and forms of intelligence can emerge from visual modalities such as images, videos, and geometry? In this paper, we dis
