I knew close to nothing about JEPA before reading your post, but i was under the impression this was supposed to be a contender for LLM's limitations, a way to do things "properly".

However, based on this article, i have the feeling that on the contrary, JEPA is filling a super niche problem, and is pretty much only trying to improve robotic motions in space.

Which of the two ideas is it ? Can JEPA technics be applied to a much more wide range of problems ? (like LLM and transformers)

I wanted to know how you made these animations, they look gorgeous!

Thanks for doing this!

Basic question: couldn't something like probabilistic roadmaps [1] trivially solve this? Or am I missing something about the limitations of PRM's?

And if so, is that the best test for JEPA?
