arXiv:2608.23927v2 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video generative models provide rich physical priors for robot learning, yet existing world-action models (WAMs) face a fundamental trade-off: synchronous video generation at control rate is latency-prohibitive, while abandoning test-time visual imagination sacrifices task success. We show that visual imagination achieves both real-time inference and superior success rates when generated asynchronously off the critical path and consumed directly in latent space. We introduce GlanceWAM, which decouples imagination from control on a single shared
