Video Models Reason Early: Exploiting Plan Commitment for Maze Solving

ArXi:2603.30043v1 Announce Type: new Video diffusion models exhibit emergent reasoning capabilities like solving mazes and puzzles, yet little is understood about how they reason during generation. We take a first step towards understanding this and study the internal planning dynamics of video models using 2D maze solving as a controlled testbed. Our investigations reveal two findings.
