Autonomous vehicle (AV) research is undergoing a rapid shift. The field is being reshaped by the emergence of reasoning-based vision–language–action (VLA) models that bring human-like thinking to AV decision-making. These models can be viewed as implicit world models operating in a semantic space, allowing AVs to solve complex problems step-by-step and to generate reasoning traces that mirror…
