Is Video Generation the Vision Field’s Next ‘Next‑Token Prediction’? A Deep Dive into GenCeption

The article examines the ECCV 2026 paper by He Kaiming, Zisserman and others that repurposes a large text‑to‑video model (GenCeption) into a unified vision learner, detailing its single‑step DiT architecture, multi‑task performance on depth, segmentation, pose and 3D tasks, and discussing whether video generation truly serves as the vision field’s next‑token prediction.
