GenCeption
ECCV 2026 paper ("Video Generation Models are General-Purpose Vision Learners") that repurposes a pre-trained video diffusion model (WAN 2.1, 14B) into a single feed-forward, text-steered vision model for depth, normals, segmentation, keypoints, camera pose, and 4D reconstruction, matching or beating task-specific SOTA with 7–500x fewer training frames.
