DiVA: Enabling Interactive Digital Life Simulation via Video Models
We present DiVA, a deeply interactive digital life simulator pioneering a new paradigm for long-term, open-ended interactive experiences within digital character worlds. DiVA's architecture pairs a Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM) as a router with a meticulously designed stacked video pipeline for seamless, multi-turn interactions with action and audio response. To maintain continuity and avoid degradation, we model generation as a three-part coupled system: waiting video, action video, and the transitions between them. These transitions are critically handled by our Anchored Video Continuation (AVC) module, which returns the character to stable states to prevent degradation. By enc...
