While I largely agree with the premise of a converged multimodal world model, I'd argue it's more like Plato's images/eikons than the ideal forms/eidelons. The representations don't seem to be lossless, and instead derive fidelity from the parameter scale.
If we had these representations converge in a real computing neural network, maybe then we could argue that they were Plato's ideals a step above the corrupted quantization of physical forms. But as they are right now, the representations are an even more reduced representations of the physical originals.
Still very neat that it's happening though.
